The AMSA® ProMover® Program: What It Means for You

Whether you are moving offices or homes, it is always best to find an American Moving & Storage Association (AMSA) ProMover®-certified moving company to provide your needs. There are many benefits to hiring someone with this certification.

AMSA® ProMover® Basics

The American Moving & Storage Association (AMSA), with over 4,000 members under it, “…is the only national association representing all segments of the moving and storage industry.” It is their mission to “effectively represent and improve the moving and storage industry through effective advocacy and by building a respected, quality ProMover brand.”

The ProMover program was created by AMSA in 2009 as a means of identifying reputable companies in the moving and storage industry. The program makes it easy for customers to find a moving and storage company they can entrust their homes and belongings to.

Where to Find a ProMover

Finding local movers who are certified ProMover companies is easy. AMSA, on their website, publishes a list of all companies that passes the program’s certification requirements. You can also use the AMSA Mover Referral Service to find a ProMover in your area. The service is free to use.

What to Expect From a ProMover

According to the AMSA, every ProMover is required to have “..honest and ethical business practices”. They should also be “..licensed and insured and meet high standards for safety and professionalism.” A high rating by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) is also a requirement.
