1. Alaska-specific invoice requirements
- Sales tax line: 0.00% state rate. Most services rendered in Alaska are exempt from sales tax — but materials, parts, and tangible goods are not. No state sales tax; some boroughs/cities levy local sales tax up to ~7%.
- Late-fee cap: Alaska statute Alaska Stat. §45.45.010 caps interest on unpaid invoices at 1.5% per month. Spell out the rate in writing on every invoice and in your contract — courts won't enforce undisclosed fees.
- Right-to-cancel notice: Customers in Alaska get 72-hour cancellation rights on certain home-services contracts. Disclose this in your terms.
2. Moving Company line items + standard terms
Every moving company invoice in Alaska should itemize work clearly. Standard moving companys use Net 0 terms with a 25% deposit required upfront.
- Labor — per hour per mover — billed by hour (~$65 default).
- Truck fee — billed by flat (~$150 default).
- Packing materials — billed by itemized.
- Long-distance mileage — billed by mile.
3. Moving Company licensing in Alaska
Intrastate movers regulated by state PUC. Interstate movers require USDOT and FMCSA registration; binding/non-binding estimate rules apply.
4. Send and follow up
Send the invoice the same day work completes. Use software that records open events and offers a one-click online payment so you don't need to chase a check by mail. Alaska customers expect digital payment options today — accepting card and ACH typically reduces days-to-paid by 30–50%.
