No matter which North Carolina moving company you choose to call, the following is designed to provide valuable, money-saving insights and, later, introduce you to the finest moving company operating in the Charlotte market: Lake Norman Moving Services, LLC.

We hope you find it useful.

FREE, NO-OBLIGATION, IN-HOME CONSULTATIONS:

We encourage you to require a free, no-obligation, in-home consultation from at least three BBB-accredited moving companies who are licensed with the North Carolina Utilities Commission.

This consultation changes all the rules moving companies must follow—and at the very least protects you with the 110% Rule as set forth by the North Carolina Utilities Commission to prevent predatory sales practices (described further below).

If the moving company you call balks and attempts to justify why an in-home consultation is unnecessary—like, they have this nifty computer software— hang up and call another company, because they’re attempting to side-step the 110% Rule with their interests in mind.

During your consultation representatives from each company will provide you with dozens of tips and suggestions that will help reduce your moving expense, if applied, and together help determine how you want your final charges assessed.

Every LEGITIMATE, LICENSED and INSURED Moving Company must, by law, provide you three options:

1.) Non-Binding Estimates (Phone, internet, fax or in-home consultation)
2.) Binding and Guaranteed Quotes (In-home consultation only)
3.) Guaranteed Not-to-Exceed Quotes (In-home consultation only)

WARNING:

If it sounds too good to be true, it’s probably a Non-binding Estimate.

If a moving company under-estimates, it’s your problem!
If a moving company under-quotes, it’s our problem!

WHAT'S THE 110% RULE?

The 110% Rule was designed by the North Carolina Utilities Commission Rates and Transportation Division to prevent predatory sales practices concerning Non-binding Estimates.

It means, basically, that if you require a moving company to dispatch a representative to your home five days or more prior to your moving day, and you are moving directly from Point A to Point B, with no stops in-between, the Company via the Representative can not Estimate that your move will cost, say, $100, and then, once everything you own is loaded on their truck, hand you a bill for $200 before relinquishing possession of your property--because, quite likely, that Non-binding Estimate was deliberately "low-balled" by the sales representative.

At that point, you have every legal right to pay 110%--or, in this case, $110--of the Non-binding Estimate you received IN WRITING, and demand the Company relinquish possession of your property and provide you with an additional 30 days to pay the remaining balance in full, at which time the Company now has a right to file suit.

Will a legitimate, licensed and insured moving company file suit for, say, $500 or even $1000? It's highly unlikely. If you feel you’ve been deliberately misled, deceived, etc, and decide not to pay the balance, they'll write it off as a loss and, quite likely, fire the sales representative.

The 110% Rule does NOT apply to phone estimates or computer-generated estimates.

QUALITY OF SERVICE:

While almost any legitimate, licensed and insured moving company can match our hourly rate, what few if any can match are our Guaranteed Not-to-Exceed Quotes and the quality of service they include.

The quality of service each moving company provides varies immensely depending on labor-management practices the Company employs.

While Lake Norman Moving Services, LLC strives to provide competitive hourly rates (below) for local and long distance moves, we shall not cut the corners necessary to provide the cheapest rates in the Charlotte-market.

To protect our clients, we don’t hire our full-time moving specialists based on a willingness to work cheap. We hire only the most experienced moving veterans and pay them a respectable American wage.

Those who have hired movers in the past realize why this is the most important factor to consider when choosing a mov
