Industry Tips
It has recently been brought to our attention that this company is not affiliated with any other Elite Moving companies. The company's name, Elite Moving is a common name and may be used by other out of state or in state businesses. Please make sure to verify the company’s name, address and phone number when you inquire about the business, or prior to filing a complaint.

We suggest that consumers insist on a written binding estimate in advance of the move. With a binding estimate, the actual moving costs may not exceed the estimate. Be certain that the estimate is very specific concerning the goods to be shipped. It is advisable to purchase additional valuation for lost or damaged goods since the statuatory liability is only .60 cents per pound. If you obtain a non-binding estimate and you are moving between states (interstate) and the final invoice exceeds the estimated amount, customers are required to pay only 10% over the original estimate when the goods are delivered, with a balance due in 30 days. You can file a complaint or verify licensing by writing to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration located at 400 Virginia Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20024, or calling (888) 368-7238.
