Your Rights and Responsibilities as a Shipper

As a Connecticut shipper, there are certain Rights and Responsibilities of which you may be unaware. I want to take a moment of my time to inform you about them. Your local moving company gives you this booklet to provide information about your rights and responsibilities as an individual shipper of your household goods. Your primary responsibility is to select a reputable local mover, ensure that you understand the terms and conditions of the contract, and understand and pursue the remedies that are available to you in case problems arise. You should talk to your local Connecticut moving company if you have further questions.

In the pamphlet you will find information on:

-Moving Service Options Provided
-Moving Estimates
-Pick up, Transportation, and Delivery of your shipment
-Collection of Moving Charges
-Resolving Issues with your move

All of which and more you can find information on, in "Your Rights and Responsibilities" booklet.
