Crazy Spring/Summer!

Many van lines are out of capacity for June!  It's only June5.  With the reduction of drivers,truck availability and general contraction of the resources in the industry over the past several years coupled with a surge in moves, most van lines are at total capacity for June.  Restrictions on loading dates in June started early on in May. 

Some van lines have taken a conservative approach to not over book.  Some have restricted bookings early in order to prevent shipments from sitting in warehouses until trucks are available to load and delivery shipments.  We have heard with some van lines shipments are already sitting in warehouses uncovered.  Hopefully we do not have any of our customers shipments sitting.  We do take precautions to prevent this from happening!

Hopefully, capacity will return in July!  We at CRS have really never had to turn down shipments. But for the month of June we are checking on every new move that comes in to be sure it can be serviced before we begin our customers in the process. If you can delay your move until July, do so now if you are not already booked for loading in June.  If you are moving in July or August, CALL CRS NOW to get started so we can book your move ahead of time. 

Normally we do get 3 estimates for each move, but with this capacity issue, it may be smart to book your move as soon as we send the surveyor out to do an estimate.  We can advise you as to whether the estimate you have gotten through one of our moving partners is in order, and according to our contractual terms with them.  If so, the estimate of cost WILL be very competitive and serviced properly.
