If any of your items are damaged or lost during a move, you must document the damages and file a claim. What is the process for reporting and filing a claim for damaged household goods?
Filing Claims for Damages
Bubble wrap is great for protecting and transporting artwork and fragile items.
Items To Wrap in Bubble Wrap
Many people finish packing and later realize they left important items behind. These are easy to miss items that often cause frustration after the move. The guide below lists the most common things people forget, so you can avoid problems after you arrive.
Common Items People Forget When Moving
Musical instruments are extremely fragile and require extra attention when transporting. The moving cost is often higher than for regular household items, but the cost of repairs can be even higher.
Packing and Moving Musical Instruments
Before you move, create a detailed home inventory that lists each item, its condition, and any serial numbers. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) notes that insurers use this type of inventory to confirm ownership during a claim. A written list supported by photos or videos provides your insurer solid proof if something is lost or damaged in transit.
Moving Inventory
You should start planning for the transfer of your pet, as well as for your household belongings, as soon as you know you are going to move. Please note that local helpers and moving companies are not permitted to transport pets.
