Customer Testimonial

"We recently had a need for your services in moving my mother from her house to a new apartment in Libertyville. I would like to express our appreciation for the professionalism and expertise shown by your staff before and during the move.

I had initially contacted Peggy by telephone to set up the move and her scheduling arrangements worked wonderfully. I would also like to commend Ken Varner on his handling of the estimate. his explanations, flexibility, and kindness during his time at the house were outstanding. Also, the three men assigned tot he move were courteous, timely, and professional throughout the entire move.

Thank you for contributing to a smooth transition for my mother."

David M. Hartshorne

Option 1:
30 cents per pound per item

This is the carriers minimum liability. You, the customer, are agreeing in writing, with the mover, to share liability for loss and damage, even though the mover is handling your goods.

An example of this option would be:

A 200 pound piece of furniture is damaged, regardless of the damage, you would receive $60.00 towards the repair or value of the item. (30 cents x 200 lbs.) Likewise a 10 lb. floorlamp, you would receive $3.00. (30 cents x 10 lbs.)

Cost: None. Provided at no charge

Requirements: The customer writes on the bill of lading," 30 cents per pound per article" and signs appropriately.


Please note that insurance must be signed before your move begins.
Option 2:
Actual Cash Value - Declared Value

The customer declares the actual value of the goods being moved and writes this on the bill of lading. This is the mover's maximum liability to you. The minimum is $2.00 x the estimated weight of the goods, as provided by the estimate, or $5000.00, whichever is more.

In an event of a claim the damaged item will be settled on the basis of its actual cash value (depreciated value).

Cost: $10.00 per $1,000 of value. ( ie. $10,000 of value = $100.00)

Requirements: The customer writes on the bill of lading the value of the goods and signs appropriately.


Please note that insurance must be signed before your move begins.
Option 3:
Replacement Insurance with deductible options

This trip transit insurance is from a third party insurance company and offered by Shur-Way Moving. You, the customer, receive a certificate or policy of insurance. Deductibles are available designed to save you money. The policies are available as a zero deductible, a $250 deductible, and a $500 deductible.

Cost:

  • $0 deductible = $1.20 per $100 of value.
  • $250 deductible = $.80 per $100 of value
  • $500 deductible = $.40 per $100 of value

Requirements: The customer writes on the bill of lading the value of the goods, followed by the letters "RCP", followed by the chosen deductible amount and "DED", then signs appropriately.


Please note that insurance must be signed before your move begins.
Option A - $0 Deductible

Under Option A, the carrier assumes responsibility for the declared or released maximum valuation amount.

Please note that insurance must be signed before your move begins.
Option B - $250 Deductible

Under Option B, in consideration of a reduction in the valuation charge, the shipper assumes responsibility for the first $250 of any claim.

Please note that insurance must be signed before your move begins.
Option C - $500 Deductible

Under Option C, in consideration of a reduction in the valuation charge, the shipper assumes responsibility for the first $500 of any claim.
