On today's show, we’re talking to the Division Chief, Monique Riddick, for the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) out of Washington, DC. The FMCSA's regulations protect consumers moving to a different state and provide information on the rights and responsibilities of consumers and the movers they hire. We go deep into what the FMCSA does to protect consumers, what to do if you feel you’ve been scammed and what resources they have for consumers at ProtectYourMove.gov such as a rights and responsibilities handbook, a moving checklist, and most importantly, the database to search for the moving company you’re considering hiring to make sure they’re in good standing with the Department of Transportation and the FMCSA. That’s also where you can find the link to file a claim if you feel you’ve been scammed.
