Avoiding Moving Scams – What Every Customer Should Know
Protect Yourself from Dishonest Movers
Unfortunately, not every moving company is trustworthy. Hidden fees, missing items, or no-show movers can turn your move into a nightmare. At iBox Moving, we believe in full transparency — and we want to help you avoid scams.
1. Check Licensing and Insurance
Legit movers should have a USDOT number for interstate moves and a CAL-T license in California. They should also carry liability and cargo insurance. No license = red flag.
2. Beware of Large Deposits
Most reputable movers won’t ask for a big deposit upfront. If a company demands full payment before the move, it could be a scam. Pay by credit card if possible for added protection.
3. Watch Out for Too-Good-To-Be-True Quotes
Extremely low prices might mean hidden fees later. Always ask for a written estimate that includes labor, fuel, materials, and time.
4. Look at Reviews and Complaints
Search for the company on Google, Yelp, and the Better Business Bureau. Consistent negative reviews or missing information online are signs to avoid.
5. Get a Written Contract
A verbal agreement is not enough. A reliable mover will provide a detailed agreement — including pickup and delivery dates, services included, and cancellation terms.
6. Never Sign Blank or Incomplete Documents
Read everything before signing. If the document is missing details or has blank spaces, don’t sign it — it could be changed later without your consent.

FAQ
When to Schedule Your Move – Best Timing Tips from iBox Moving
When Should I Schedule My Move?
To get the best availability and rates, it’s always a good idea to schedule your move as early as possible. At iBox Moving, we understand that flexibility matters, so we offer options for both early bookings and last-minute moves.
Best Timeframes for Booking
- 2–3 Weeks in Advance: Ideal for most local moves. Ensures your preferred date and time are available, especially at the end or beginning of the month.
- 1 Week in Advance: Still great for standard moves, especially on weekdays.
- Same-Day or Next-Day: Yes — we can often accommodate last-minute moves depending on availability. Just call us!
What Days Are Most Popular?
Fridays, weekends, and end-of-month dates book up quickly. If you need to move during these high-demand times, we recommend scheduling at least 2–3 weeks ahead.
When Is the Cheapest Time to Move?
- Mid-month (around the 10th–20th)
- Weekdays (Monday through Thursday)
- Morning time slots
These times are usually less busy and may offer better rates or more flexibility.
Can I Reschedule If My Plans Change?
Absolutely. Just let us know as soon as possible and we’ll do our best to adjust. We understand that plans shift — and we’re here to work with you.
