When it comes to long-distance moving, the biggest fear for most consumers isn’t the drive—it’s what gets lost along the way.
At Safeway Moving, we’ve eliminated that fear entirely.
The Industry’s First True No-Loss Inventory System
Our proprietary inventory scanning tool is the first of its kind in long-distance moving. Once our professional movers carefully wrap your belongings in protective moving blankets, we affix a palm-sized sticker to each item. This sticker contains:
- Your name
- Delivery address
- Job file number
- A unique barcode
Every single item is scanned and logged at each critical stage of the move:
- At pick-up (origin)
- At reload (if your move involves transferring items to another truck or into storage)
- At final delivery
Our software will not allow the move to proceed to the next phase unless every item is accounted for and scanned. This means:
No item ever gets left behind.
Why This Is Groundbreaking
In traditional long-distance moves, when items go missing, it’s more than an inconvenience—it’s a costly problem. Most moving contracts charge by weight or cubic feet, so even if something is lost, you still pay for it. Then you’re left to file a claim that rarely results in recovery or fair compensation.
With Safeway Moving, our customers never experience that scenario. Every item is digitally verified, logged, and tracked in real-time from origin to destination. All inventory is stored in our electronic Bill of Lading (eBOL)—not a clipboard with messy handwriting. No paper. No guesswork. No mistakes.
How Other Movers Still Operate
Unfortunately, most movers still rely on an outdated system. Here’s how it works:
- They use color-coded thumbnail stickers with numbers that correspond to a handwritten inventory sheet.
- These stickers often fall off during loading, shifting, or unloading.
- The paperwork is passed down to the delivery crew, who must interpret handwriting and make judgment calls on what’s what.
- Rather than slowing down to reconcile every item, most movers assume everything made it—which is how things go missing.
Worse still, if something is missing, the delivery team often has no idea what was left behind and where. You’re left holding the bill and a claim form.
How Other Movers Still Operate
Our system has eliminated lost items entirely. There is no longer a need to hope your items made it. You’ll know—because our system knows.
If you’re moving across the country, don’t settle for guesswork and broken systems. Move with accountability, transparency, and peace of mind.
Move with Safeway Moving—where nothing gets left behind.
