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

Are You Licensed answered by iBox Moving experts

Is iBox Moving a Licensed Moving Company? – FAQ

Are You a Licensed Moving Company?

Yes — iBox Moving is fully licensed and insured to operate both locally in Los Angeles and for long-distance moves within California and beyond. We take compliance seriously to ensure your move is protected at every step.

What Licenses Do You Hold?

  • CAL-T License: Required by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for household goods movers.
  • USDOT Number: Issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation for interstate authority.

Why Does Licensing Matter?

Working with a licensed mover protects you from fraud, damage, and liability. It also ensures the company follows safety, insurance, and transportation regulations. Unlicensed movers may offer low prices — but the risks are high.

Are You Insured?

Yes. We carry general liability and cargo insurance to protect your belongings during transit. If you need proof of insurance, we’re happy to provide a certificate.

How Can I Verify Your License?

You can check our CAL-T number with the California Public Utilities Commission or our USDOT number on the official FMCSA website. We’re transparent — just ask, and we’ll show you.

Storage Tips explained in our moving guide

Storage Tips: Step-by-Step Moving Guide

Why Storage Matters During a Move

Whether you’re downsizing, in between homes, or just need extra space, proper storage can protect your belongings and make moving smoother.

1. Choose the Right Type of Storage

Decide between short-term and long-term storage. For valuables, consider climate-controlled units to avoid damage from heat or moisture.

2. Label Everything

Use waterproof labels and list contents on each box. Number your boxes and keep a reference list, so you can find things later without digging.

3. Use Strong Packing Materials

Choose sturdy boxes, plastic bins, and secure wrapping like bubble wrap or furniture blankets. Avoid using trash bags — they tear easily and don’t stack.

4. Maximize Vertical Space

Place heavier boxes on the bottom and lighter ones on top. Stack to the ceiling, but leave walkways for access. Shelving can be a game changer.

5. Protect Sensitive Items

Wrap electronics, wooden furniture, and artwork carefully. Avoid plastic wrap on leather or wood — it can trap moisture and cause damage.

6. Leave Room for Airflow

Don’t pack everything wall-to-wall. Leave space between stacks and walls to allow ventilation and prevent mold buildup.
