Many of our local customers request us time and time again because they are so satisfied with the outstanding service they received. They appreciate courteous, professional movers who are on time -- and take the time -- to do it right.

During your move, floor runners will be used to safeguard your carpets and cardboard for your hardwood floors. The movers will work quickly and efficiently, treating your possessions with the utmost care. If the crew disassembles any items, those items will be restored to their original structure. At your destination, crew members will place all of your possessions in the correct location.

We set the standard for service, and we deliver on it, every time.

Under no circumstances will Shur-Way cover any boxes that are packed by the owner. The obvious exception would be if we accidentally dropped a box. In that event, please open the box and go through it with one of the movers immediately.

Shur-Way will not provide the convenience of disconnecting any appliance. Please contract this work to an appropriate contractor.

Absolutely no claim will be paid if a repair is made prior to Shur-Way's office being notified of the damage.

Protecting your belongings

The first step in protecting your belongings is to choose a mover who is licensed, insured, and bonded. These movers are protected by liability and cargo insurance, and more importantly workman's compensation insurance if someone should be injured on your job.

The second step is to go with your instincts. Choose the mover whom you feel most comforable with.

Third, consider valuation and insurance options. You are not required to additionally protect your goods, but it is available only from those movers who qualify to offer it and provide it at reasonable costs.

Valuation and Insurance options

• 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.

• 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: $.80 per $100 of value. ( ie. $10,000 of value = $80.00)

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

• 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.
