New Household Goods Tariff Rules
Posted by David Piotrowski
The Surface Transportation Board (STB) recently ended antitrust immunity for ratemaking in the moving industry. This means moving companies may be subjected to liability if they continue to uniformly apply the 400N or other similar tariffs beginning on January 1, 2008. Continuing the use such tariffs may subject moving companies to liability under the nation’s anti-trust laws.
As a moving company, what can you do to protect yourself from such liability? We recommend contacting competent legal counsel and creating your own, custom tariff that reflects your business practices and your rates. Protect yourself by publishing your own, custom tariff.
