Should I trust movers with my equipment?


Should I trust household movers with my equipment for
a long distance move (about 1100 miles)?
I would pack everything myself in mostly original boxes and
double boxing most things beyond that.
No big speakers, just a bunch of expensive electronics and monitors.
Or should I just rent a truck and drive my stuff by myself?
Thanks.

I moved cross-country a year ago and carried all my valuable audio equipment in the back of my car.

Considering the considerable damage done to some of my household furniture I'm very glad I didn't trust the audio gear to the movers.

Even having insurance that covers damage won't compensate you for the hassle of making claims and trying to recover costs.

Don't do it.
