Section 260. Moves performed by a commercial mover

The district office will secure two independent bids or estimates from reputable and qualified moving companies, which VDOT may pay for if necessary. The movers will be provided with the certified inventory of the personal property to be moved. Arrangements will be made for an inspection of the site from which property will be moved. Bids will be solicited with the understanding that VDOT has the right to reject any and all bids. It is incumbent upon the district office to see that all bids received are based on the certified inventory and move specifications. The maximum payment will be limited to the lowest acceptable bid. The displacee has the right to engage any moving company to accomplish the move, and VDOT will pay the amount for the move supported by receipted bills not to exceed the amount of the approved low bid.
