Read my post. Interstate moves are by weight. Reason why you will see signs for weigh stations. They must get off and have the truck weighed. If, anyone will give you a binding estimate, they will over estimate the weight for the quote. As I discovered. Mayflower and United Van lines are owned by the same umbrella corporation. The business structure is sort of like a franchise. You talk to what you think is Mayflower. It can be a privately owned business that pays a franchise fee to use the advertised Mayflower name. They of course police the local guy so he does not damage the valuable name.
