Shownotes

Hiring the wrong moving company in Texas can turn a stressful day into a costly nightmare. Host Jean Mitchell of Trilogy Real Estate sits down with Gregory Gray, President of Graceful Moves, to walk through exactly how to vet a mover before signing anything -- and what red flags to catch before it's too late.

What you'll learn:

✔️ How to spot rogue movers: red flags like refusing to put terms in writing, missing license info, and large upfront payment demands

✔️ Why phone estimates are a mistake for homes larger than three bedrooms -- and what to require instead

✔️ How to verify any mover's license and insurance status using the FMCSA website before you commit

✔️ What Graceful Moves handles: specialty heavy items like pianos and 800 lb gun safes, plus an upcoming junk removal service

Gregory Gray is the President of Graceful Moves, a Texas-based moving company he built from the ground up -- starting from an apartment complex and growing to a full fleet of trucks.
