In addition to offering multiple types of estimates, carriers offer various levels of carrier liability, as detailed
to the right, under the terms of the tariff and pursuant to the STB's Released Rates Orders that govern our industry.
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.

Customer Protection Plan For Long Distance Moves
Option 1 - Released Value
Minimal carrier liability at no additional cost to the shipper. Loss or damage claims are settled based on the
weight of the article multiplied by $.60. (For example, a broken lamp weighing 7
pounds would be covered up to a maximum value of $4.20.)
Option 2 - Full Value Protection
As provided in item 53 of Tariff 400, the purchase of Full Value Protection means that if articles are lost
or destroyed, or damaged, they will be either repaired, replaced with like items, or cash settlement made
for the current market replacement value, regardless of the age of the lost or damaged item. Unlike other plans,
depreciation of the lost or damaged item is not a factor in determining replacement value. The amount of the
shipment valuation is based on a minimum declared value of $5,000 or $4.00 times the net weight of the shipment,
whichever is greater. (For example, if the shipment weights 1,000 pounds, the
minimum value declared must be at least $5,000.)
Carrier's maximum liability and the valuation charges specified herein for the assumption of liability shall be subject to selection
by the shipper, prior to loading, of an appropriate maximum valuation amount and either deductible Option "A", "B", or "C".
Shipper may declare or release the shipment to a higher maximum valuation amount, subject to one of the amounts shown
below. To avoid these additional charges, shipper must agree that if articles are lost or damaged, carrier liability will not exceed
$.60 per pound for the actual weight of any lost or damaged article or articles in the shipment.
Option A -- No Deductible:
Under Option A, the carrier assumes responsibility for the declared or released maximum valuation amount.
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.
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.
Please note that insurance must be signed before your move begins.
