BASIC VALUE

All of our customers receive a basic amount of released valuation protection with every move at "no charge". This is the standard coverage that should be supplied by all movers which blankets your personal belongings for 60 cents per pound per article. So for example if you had an article that weighed 100 lbs. you would be covered for $60.00. A deductible of $150.00 applies.
