Moving Scams to Escape This Year provided by ServiceMagic.com.

Although people move during all times of the year, spring and early summer are at the peak of moving traffic. More volume brings out the con artists, trying to move undetected in the mobs of people who are attempting to relocate. So this is also the season to protect yourself from the typical scams out there.

Most Common Moving Scam
The most common moving scam might not even be an actual scam, so much as poor administration. Time and again, people reserve trucks, trailers, and vans, way in advance, and the day they are scheduled to pick it up, nothing is there.

In most cases, this is the fault of another renter who didn't bring back their truck as scheduled, which means no truck for you. Understanding though you might be, understanding how this happens doesn't help you to get moving. Some truck rental companies will offer guarantees and others won't even offer a condolence, but get the tightest commitment that you can finagle, and then just realize that sometimes trucks don't show up.
