All items glass, stone, mirror, marble, granite, electronics, lamps, televisions, computers, statues and other loose articles and personal effects must be boxed by our professionals to be insured and to be considered a valid claim. IF a customer packs their own goods or provides their own materials, a claim is only valid in the case of Our Companies “negligence”. If a customer declines full valuation and declines to properly pack an item, bag a mattress, or follow the movers suggested handling procedures, the claim will not be considered valid. Any damage in this case will be considered “negligence” on behalf of the customer.
Note 1: Any item damaged that is required to be boxed (ie. televisions, electronics) by our professionals or bagged (ie. mattresses) by our professionals are not covered by any valuation. When you purchase packing services, we provide the boxes, void filler, bags and insurance for the ultimate protection of your goods. Any customer who packs their own goods or provides their own materials will not receive the insurance coverage necessary to ensure the proper protection of their goods during their move.
Note 2: Particle board, machine pressed or mechanically produced pressboard furniture must be completely disassembled and boxed in it’s original casing to be properly covered by insurance or valuation policy.
