Valuation Coverage
Standard coverage will be the same with any licensed mover, and covers $.60/lb for any damage done.
Additionally, there are 2 additional levels of valuation coverage we can offer. Both cover repair or
replacement of any damaged items. The way this valuation works is that you would declare a value
for your belongings being moved.
With a $300 deductible the cost would be 1.4% of the total value.
If you choose a $0 deductible, it would be 2.7% of the value.
One thing to note is that if you decline to take out valuation coverage for the total amount of worth,
we can only compensate you for the percentage of value you obtained. For example, if your items are
valued at $100,000, and you only take out $25,000 worth of insurance, you would only be covered
for 25% of any damage/replacement cost, so we do strongly recommend if you'd like additional
coverage to take it out in the full amount of your declared value.
Also, if you have any items worth more than $10,000 individually, they require separate coverage at a
slightly higher rate than the overall coverage.
Check out our valuation calculator to determine the cost for protecting your items.
Enter 1.4% for the $300 deductible, or 2.7% with no deductible, then include the total value
of your items and calculate.
