When planning a move, you shouldn’t have to cross your fingers and hope for the best. Unfortunately, if you book your move through a moving broker, that’s exactly what you might be doing. At Boerman Moving and Storage, we believe your move should be stress-free, predictable, and handled by trusted professionals—not left to chance.
What Is a Moving Broker?
A moving broker is not a moving company. Instead, they act as a middleman, collecting your information and selling your move to a third-party company—often without vetting the quality of service, reliability, or professionalism of the movers they hire.
Why Using a Moving Broker Is a Risk
No Guaranteed Movers – Brokers don’t own trucks or employ movers. They post your job and hire whichever company is available—sometimes at the last minute. That means you don’t know who will actually show up on moving day.
Hidden Fees & Surprise Costs – Brokers often provide low-ball estimates to secure your business, only for the actual movers to charge additional fees once your belongings are already loaded onto the truck.
No Direct Accountability – If something goes wrong—delays, damages, or no-shows—the broker is unlikely to take responsibility. You may be left scrambling to find another mover or struggling to resolve issues with an unfamiliar company.
Potential for Moving Scams – Some disreputable brokers work with unlicensed or uninsured moving companies, putting your belongings and peace of mind at risk.
