As the result of a law
enacted in 1992, all household
goods movements within New York
State are regulated by the
Department of Transportation,
and can only legally be
performed by movers authorized
through the Department. Every
such mover is required in its
advertising, or soliciting, to
give you information about its
certificate of authority and
company address. These movers
are required to obey the law
and the rules and regulations
of the Department. One such
rule requires them to file with
the Department, and have
available for your inspection,
a tariff setting forth rates
and charges. DO NOT USE AN
UNLICENSED
MOVER!
