What the rule says
- A no-show on the agreed pickup date is a breach of the bill of lading and, interstate, of the reasonable-dispatch rule.
- A broker that sold your job to a carrier who never confirmed is still the party that took your deposit.
- Card deposits can be disputed with the paper attached. Cash and app transfers usually cannot.
Interstate rules are FMCSA rules. A move inside one state follows that state, if it has a desk. This is not legal advice.
What you do this week
- 1Call the office and the USDOT-registered number, not only the salesperson. Ask for a new time in writing.
- 2If it is silence by noon, you are shopping same-day. Ask for a USDOT or company number before anyone drives over.
- 3Write it up with dates and the USDOT, dispute the deposit, and file with the NCCDB if the mover or broker is interstate.
