How to protect your valuables
As a moving labor company, because we do not provide transportation for your cargo, we are not required to insure your items. However, we do choose to adhere to federal laws, to provide basic valuation coverage. You do have the option to purchase insurance for your items and everything will be protected throughout your move.
Valuation Coverage (Included)
We are not required to provide any insurance, however we voluntarily adhere to valuation.
It covers 60 cents per pound for each item that we touch, or that is in your inventory (if one is provided).
Example - 50lb item = $30 reimbursed for repair (50lbs x 60 cents = $30)
Your items are covered while we:
Pack
Load
Unload
**We only provide valuation for items that are damaged while a crew member is handling them**
Full-Value Replacement Coverage Insurance (Not Included)
This is a great option if you have a lot of heavy and/or antique items. It covers the full value of any damaged item in your inventory. The cost of this coverage is based on the total value of your items.
The total price is available to you after you complete the inventory.

Protecting Your Surroundings
When you hire a moving labor company, keep in mind that your move becomes a ”Self-Help” move. This means that you must provide all protective supplies for your items and the surrounding area.
BE ADVISED...
If you do not have moving blankets, we CANNOT be liable for potential damage.
If you choose to have the guys force an item into or out of any tight space, we CANNOT be liable for any damage done.
If you choose to have the crew move something that you know will cause unavoidable damage, we CANNOT be liable for damage done.
Reporting Damages
Any damage that incurs during your move must be reported the same day.
Send photos and a description of the damage to support@movingupmovers.com.
Allow up to 60 business days to receive reimbursement or to have repairs complete.
**For liability reasons we cannot be responsible for damage not reported on the day of the move**
WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND...
Even with coverage in place we still recommend taking these preventative measures:
- Have furniture pads and moving tape available
- Put all TVs in a box (wrapping them before doing so is even better)
- If you hire us to load only, have some rope
- Label and tape your boxes
