Collegian Movers offers customers two convenient payment options for their moving services: cash or check. To ensure a smooth transaction, Collegian accepts certified, traveler’s, bank, and personal checks with limitations. When it’s time to settle the payment, the foreman of your moving crew collects the funds. Paying For A Long Distance Move? Interstate and long-distance moving payment terms require payments to be made with a cashier’s check or money order. For long distance moves, Collegian Movers adheres to a specific payment procedure. By adhering to this payment requirement, you can ensure a hassle-free experience and a successful relocation. Per federal regulations, pay before unloading at your destination.

You can also choose to pay for the move at the origin to ensure a seamless transition to your new home. Transitioning to your new home should be stress-free, and by considering this alternative payment method, you can start your journey with greater confidence and ease. For corporate moves, make sure your employer pre-arranges an acceptable payment method. Most importantly, be sure to have the method of payment worked out ahead of time to avoid problems on the delivery day. All payments are required on the day services are rendered unless other arrangements are made in advance. Paying For Your Short Distance Move? When it comes to local and short distance moves, Collegian Movers has a payment policy in place. Payment in cash or personal check is required upon completion of the move, ensuring a seamless transaction. The foreman takes charge of preparing the bill, a comprehensive document that meticulously outlines the services provided and the corresponding charges. This detailed record serves as an essential reference, showcasing the professionalism and transparency of Collegian Movers throughout the moving process.
