• Licensed and Insured – Palmer Moving Services meets all city, state, and federal safety codes and carries full liability and cargo insurance.

• Ongoing Safety Training – From heavy lifting to proper truck packing, our team members are guided through proven techniques to minimize safety hazards.
• Use of Safety Gear – Gloves, back braces, non-slip footwear, and other gear are provided as appropriate.

• DOT-Compliant Vehicles – All trucks are routinely checked and serviced according to Department of Transportation regulations.

 

How We Safeguard Your Property

A key component of Moving Safety is making sure your belongings stay secure from start to finish. We safeguard your items with:

• Protective Padding and Wrapping – All furniture and fragile items are carefully padded and covered to prevent scuffs, damage, or breakage.
• Secure Loading Techniques – Our crew uses load stabilization strategies and proper stacking methods to minimize movement in the truck.
• Specialized Handling – For sensitive, valuable, or unique items, we use tools and techniques suited for specific needs.
• Inventory Tracking – We mark, list, and organize each item to prevent any items from going missing.

 

Adhering to Moving Regulations in Flint

• FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration) regulations that apply to interstate moving
• Local licensing requirements for moves in Flint
