Where to find info on small moving company??

[ChiBOY83]

Grandma is moving into a nursing home, so now the family is swooping in to claim what they want. We found a good deal to make a shipment from Chicago, to Arizona with a company called "MicroShip"...

I already googled, and found nothing specific regarding this company...anyone know of a site like "resellerratings" for moving companies. thanks in advance

nice find, WW.

I used to own an online moving brokerage site. Here's what I'd do:

1: Take a look in the yellow pages in your home town. Find a well-known local mover.
2: check them out.
3: have them pick up the goods from grandma's. They will have long haul trucks out there they can give the job to.

If you do have any issues, you can easily contact them, they are not going anywhere. Some place out of town and fly-by-night< possibly this microship> can be impossible to deal with when things go sour.
