Illegal Craigslist Delivery Service In Texas

State Law clearly states and requires that ANY business or individual transporting ANY quantity of household goods ANY distance in Texas for hire MUST obtain a TXDOT Registration Number and comply with all rules, regulations and law related to household goods movers in Texas. These laws require the mover / delivery service to maintain proper insurance, keep accurate records, use "moving proposals" and "moving contracts" on EVERY delivery job, and make it easy for consumers to contact TXDOT and register formal complaints when nessecary. These laws are designed to protect YOU, the consumer.

"Household Goods" include, (but are not limited to), items such as appliances, furniture and bedding.

Example: You locate and purchase a sofa on Craigslist but do not have the means to transport the sofa from the seller to your home. You look in the "moving / labor" section of Craigslist and find and individual or small business who is offering to transport such items for a reasonable fee. The individual or business performing the service for you must comply with ALL of the household goods laws. No exceptions. Anything else is ILLEGAL!
