I got a few tips from a fellow victim of the Champions Movers (Fremont, CA) - ASAP Relocation (San Jose, CA) moving scam. Champions, aside from giving you low ball quotes, ratcheting up your final price thousands of dollars, breaking all your stuff, holding your stuff hostage, being as professional as Hitler to the Jews, and other assorted crimes, they are also notorious for being late- VERY LATE- delivering your stuff, especially when you move from one state to another.
One of my loyal readers has e-mailed me these tips. If Champions Movers is late delivering your goods you are LEGALLY ENTITLED to the discounts and credits listed below. Champions Movers will likely threaten you, at which point, I would immediately contact a lawyer or your local police department.
1. The Federal Highway Administration states: “If the mover fails to
pick up and deliver your shipment on the dates entered on the bill of
lading and you have expenses you otherwise would not have had, you may
be able to recover those expenses from the mover.”
2. The California Moving and Storage Association (CMSA)states : “If pickup is
not made on the agreed date and delivery within two (2) days of the
agreed date, the carrier must pay you $100 per day for each and every
day of delay. This is in addition to any other claim you make.”
