How to read the FMCSA rights booklet, 2026
As of September 2026, 49 CFR 375.213 still says a US interstate mover must give you Ready to Move and Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move with the written estimate. Appendix A still names the released-value waiver as 60 cents per pound per article. The trust hub is the overview. This page is what to initial.

Why this matters
The driveway fight is a waiver you ticked because it looked like a fee you could skip.
Why Haulest
We cite 375.213 and Appendix A. A phone here is not a booking.

A person on the phone is faster than a form if you already know the dates. If you cannot talk now, leave From, To, and a number.

| Page | Why |
|---|---|
| Ready to Move + Rights booklet | 375.213. A hyperlink plus a signed receipt can replace paper |
| Binding vs non-binding | 110% is the non-binding COD delivery rule |
| Released Value vs Full Value | Appendix A: 60 cents per pound per article on the waiver |
| Complaint and arbitration phones | 375.209 and 375.211. A tick is not a 370 claim |
Initial the expensive box on purpose
Appendix A’s example is still the one we opened: a 10-pound stereo worth $1,000 pays $6 on released value. Full Value’s minimum in that booklet is $6.00 per pound times shipment weight. Do not initial the cheap box because it looks optional.
The US interstate hub has the 110 percent rule. This page is the booklet you should already have. We link it. We do not rehost it as ours.
