Tariff Publishing

Posted by David Piotrowski

Moving companies that transport household goods interstate are required by law to publish a tariff. In the case of interstate household goods rules, tariff publishing does not mean that the moving company must upload the tariff to a website or file it with the government. Movers may publish a tariff on their own or have a competent professional create a tariff for them, so long as the tariff meets all legal requirements.

Among other rules, tariffs shall be published in the English language and rates shall be stated in money of the United States. Tariffs must be kept at the offices of the moving company, and must be made available for inspection by the public or by the relevant government entity.
