National Moving Group Bait and Switch Boca Raton Florida

Moving is one of the few things that you really can't do strictly with an online approach. The mover has to actually come to your home to view your things to give you a written binding estimate. Otherwise, you will be ripped off - as you were in this case. 

There are lots of moving brokers in the business that do nothing but collect a fee from you.  That is the scam. They don't do the move, they don't even attempt to give an accurate quote. They can't quote for the third party moving anyway so their figures never line up with what you were told by the moving broker. In your case, there is a disclaimer on that website that they will work as a broker and not a mover, except in local moves (paraphrased).  Look up the proper way to get your quotes, that you can do online (the research). But getting the actual quotes online or over the phone, no way. In 100% of the cases, you need to have the mover actually come to your place to walk through to give you an actual written contract. Once you do your research, you will see how often fraud happens in the moving industry. It is a real shame.
