Student Movers Is a Member Of The AMLPA

Student Movers is now a member of the AMLPA.

About the AMLPA

The AMLPA is a non-profit organization designed to oversee and organize the moving labor services industry. The moving labor industry is a fairly new market segment of the moving industry however its exponential growth over the years mandates that an organization must provide structure to the industry.

Similar to the AMSA (American Moving and Storage Association) that oversees the full service moving industry, the AMLPA is designed to provide certifications, guidelines, compliance and a level of consistent quality not yet available in the moving labor services industry. The primary reason for the lack of structure is that the industry itself is new and the dust has yet to settle. As with any large industry, consumers need a certain level of recourse and industry professionals across the nation need a trade association for support and compliance.

Mission Statement
The goal of the American Moving Labor Professionals Association is to provide a high level of quality within the moving labor services industry. To create industry awareness of our services and ensure that consumers are received a quality service. As with any trade organization, the AMLPA will require certification of moving labor companies by verifying license, insurance, local and state compliance and quality of work.

The AMLPA will provide industry professionals with compliance measures, resources for business growth, marketing assistance and assistance with legal matters. The AMLPA will provide consumers with dispute resolution, qualified member listings and information on the moving labor services industry and how they can benefit from the service.

What is a DDT?

DDT sounds like you’re being charged double for drive time but that’s a mistake! The California Public Utilities Commission requires all moving companies to charge DDT on hourly rated moves. DDT means you are charged for the time between the old house (origin) and the new house and the moving company is responsible for the drive time between the warehouse and the origin. DDT actually SAVES you money!
