Consultations should be done in clients home before the actual moving is done to determine the amount of things she or he has in order to give a reasonable final quotation. Sometimes clients are given exaggerated rates whilst others are required to add an extra amount when the movers realize that some of the items were left out. These consultations are not chargeable.
