Truck parking permits: Some cities require parking permits for large vehicles and moving trucks. Find out if you need any parking permits ahead of time.
State licensing: Movers that provide relocation services within the Silver State are subject to rules and regulations set forth by the Nevada Transportation Authority (NTA). The NTA’s aims include fostering economic growth and promoting efficient, safe, and reliable moving services around the state. Double-check that the moving company is properly licensed before you hire them.
State regulator: You can verify a Nevada moving company's license by visiting the state's public utilities commission.
Moving Permits: While Nevada doesn't mandate moving permits, checking local parking guidelines before your move-in day is still a good idea.

Moving company insurance: Every state requires moving companies to carry different levels of insurance. Opt for Released Value Protection, the cost-free choice provided by movers, albeit with minimal coverage. Movers take responsibility for a maximum of 60 cents per pound per article.
