handle is hein.gao/gaobabebl0001 and id is 1 raw text is: BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL Report To The Congress OF THE UNITED STATES The Household Goods Moving Industry: Changes Since Passage Of Regulatory Reform Legislation Legislation enacted in 1980 reduced regulation of the interstate household goods moving industry. GAO reviewed the changes that have occurred among the industry's large- and medium-size carriers--com- monly called van lines--since passage of the 1980 legislation and the status of the Federal Govern- ment's effort to monitor the changes. GAO found that --van lines have begun to offer a variety of new service and price options, --agents of van lines have obtained new authority or expanded their existing authority to move household goods in additional States, but may not be using it, and --when compared with prior years' income, the largest carriers were doing financially better than medium-sized carriers. The Interstate Commerce Commission has developed a monitoring program to provide information to the Congress on van lines' compliance with its new operating regulations. However, GAO is concerned that the proposed program may not be fully responsive to congressional needs for information on the impact of the legislation on the shippers and the carriers. ., VD S 7,1 2 , 7~gj 11Ccou0J\' Iii 111111111111111 i 111111l 121624 GAO/RCED-83-86 JUNE 10, 1983 -1.1 A11-
