Long-Distance Movers Payments

Interstate household movers must state accepted payment methods on the estimate and bill of lading, and card payments at delivery need authorization. Deposits taken weeks early and damage disputes make processors cautious, so Roots uses merchant accounts built for that risk.

Square Invoices

For interstate & long-distance movers: Send itemized invoices for moving deposits, storage rent and service balances and track deposits, due dates and outstanding balances. Square Invoices can work for smaller interstate moves; larger or high-deposit moves usually need a dedicated merchant account. Square Invoices sends estimates and invoices by email, SMS or a shareable link and tracks what's paid, unpaid or overdue. Roots configures the templates, payment schedules and reminders around how you bill.
  • Build your service catalog, tax settings and branded invoice and estimate templates
  • Set up deposit and milestone schedules that match your contracts and any state limits you operate under
  • Connect Square to QuickBooks Online or Xero so paid invoices reconcile automatically
