As a result of the comparison, if it is confirmed that the registered moving company is a registered moving company (step S205), a moving / moving-related selection screen is displayed on the moving company terminal 4 (step S20).
6). This display screen allows the user to select whether to read out the moving information or to read out moving-related information, for example, information on waste disposal and recycling. If moving information is selected in step S207, a signal indicating that moving information has been selected is sent to the moving information center 2, and data is read from the moving information database 21. The data read from the moving information database 21 is displayed on the moving agent terminal 4 (step S208). When the moving information is supplied from the moving information database 21 to the moving agent terminal 4,
The data processing device 12 causes the accounting database 24 to record the ID of the moving company that provided the moving information, the estimate requester ID, the date and time when the moving information was supplied, and the number of information (step S209).

Next, the moving company that has acquired the moving information creates an estimate and contract conditions based on this information and inputs it to the moving company terminal 4. Moving information center 2
It receives the quote and contract conditions input to the moving company terminal 4, checks the destination by referring to the information of the moving requester stored in the moving requester database 22, and checks the moving requester of the designated destination. Transfer to terminal 3. The moving requester
The quotation and contract conditions from one or a plurality of moving companies transferred from the moving information center 2 are examined, and a moving company to be contracted is selected and notified to the moving information center 2. Then, when the contract is established, the data processing device 12 refers to the billing information stored in the billing database 24, calculates a fee according to a predetermined rate, and transmits the fee to the moving company terminal 4.
