House moving quotations

[abbby]

Is it common to find local Movers under quoting on their quotes to get the business and later tell you it's actually costing more on the day of move? I was quoted for about 5 trucks but my last move was about 10-12 trucks. This disparity puzzles me on the huge difference in truck load...are they going to tell me it's actually 7 more trucks on the day of move? Quite hesitant to take up their offer.

Anyone has such experiences before with local Movers?

Were you transparent with the amount of things that needed shifting? I would say that when it comes to moving transparency is of upmost importance. If you were upfront with what you needed but they were not firm on their quotation from the get-go, I would avoid engaging their services. It may seem like a small misquotation but it actually speaks to lack of professionalism and honesty.
