Benefits of accepting a CitiMove bid:

1. Give the movers a reason to do a good job.
Movers know that you will submit a verified review upon completion of the move. They will work hard to avoid a bad review. One bad review can cost them a lot of business.
2. Don't let the mover leave you hanging.
CitiMove movers are ranked. They get 10 points for getting a job. But they lose 20 points if they cancel. Remember, a mover can only be penalized if you accept that bid. If the mover backs out, you can always reopen your job and accept another bid.
3. Reduce Disputes
Emails are sent out to both the customer and mover with the complete details of the move. Print this copy for proof of what you entered. Movers can't claim they 'didn't hear you correctly'.
4. Prevent Mistakes
Miscommunications over the phone can lead to wrong addresses, questionable information, etc. More importantly, it's your word against the movers. When the mover gets a printable copy of your move info (along with a map of the route) you avoid the risk of miscommunication and increase the chances that the mover will show up at the right place, at the right time, with the right supplies.
5. Help other customers.
By accepting a mover's bid, you are helping CitiMove to rank these movers. If you have a bad experience, you can prevent other customers from hiring your mover. If you have a great move, accepting the mover's bid will increase his rank.
