How to Check If a Moving Company Is Legit

Simple. Do your homework before you hand over your stuff.

First. Check reviews. Not just the five-stars, but the bad ones too. Look for patterns. If everyone’s saying “they were late” or “stuff got broken,” believe them.

Second. Licensing and insurance. In the US, movers need a license number. No license? No thanks.

Third. Clear pricing. If they avoid giving you a written estimate, that’s a red flag. No one likes surprise fees.

Fourth. Ask questions. Real companies give real answers. Not vague promises or “don’t worry, we got you.”

And finally. Trust your gut. If it feels sketchy, it probably is.

FAQ

How To Tip Movers answered by iBox Moving experts

How to Tip Movers – Etiquette & Guidelines from iBox Moving

How Should I Tip the Movers?

Tipping is never required — but always appreciated. If your moving crew did a great job, a tip is a meaningful way to say thank you. At iBox Moving, our teams work hard to deliver excellent service, and many clients choose to reward them for it.

How Much Should I Tip?

There’s no fixed rule, but here are some common tipping guidelines:

  • $20–$40 per mover for small half-day jobs
  • $50–$100 per mover for full-day moves
  • Or tip 10–20% of the total cost, divided between the team

Do I Tip Each Mover Separately?

You can — or give the full amount to the team lead (foreman) to divide evenly. Either way works fine.

Should I Tip in Cash or Digitally?

Cash is the most common, but you can also use Venmo, Zelle, or another app if the crew agrees. Just ask them what works best.

Is It Okay Not to Tip?

Absolutely. Tipping is optional. We never pressure clients to tip — we just aim to earn it through hard work, care, and great attitude.

Other Ways to Show Appreciation

  • Leave a positive review mentioning your movers by name
  • Offer water, snacks, or coffee during the job
  • Refer us to friends or neighbors

Have Questions?

If you're not sure what’s appropriate, just ask our team — we’ll guide you honestly with no pressure. We’re here to make your move stress-free and respectful for everyone involved.

Pet Relocation Tips explained in our moving guide

Pet Relocation Tips – Moving with Pets Made Easy

Make Moving Day Easier for You and Your Pets

Moving is stressful enough — but when pets are involved, it takes extra care. Whether you're moving with a dog, cat, or other furry friend, iBox Moving has the experience to help you prepare. Here’s how to relocate pets safely and calmly.

1. Visit the Vet Before the Move

Schedule a checkup to ensure your pet is healthy and up to date on vaccines. Ask for copies of medical records and discuss ways to reduce anxiety if your pet is sensitive to change.

2. Get Your Pet Used to the Carrier

If your pet isn’t already crate-trained, introduce the carrier early. Let them explore it, nap in it, and associate it with treats or toys. This will reduce stress on moving day.

3. Keep Their Routine

Feed and walk your pets at the same times each day leading up to the move. Familiar routines help reduce anxiety and keep pets feeling safe.

4. Prepare a Pet Essentials Bag

Pack a small bag with food, water, toys, medications, leashes, litter, and cleaning supplies. Keep it handy for moving day and your first few nights in the new home.

5. Secure Pets on Moving Day

Keep pets in a quiet room or with a trusted friend while movers are in the home. Open doors and heavy foot traffic can be dangerous or overwhelming for animals.

6. Set Up Their Space First

Once you arrive, arrange your pet’s bed, bowls, and favorite items in a calm area of the new home. The sooner they feel at home, the better.
