  • If there is a major problem--you will enjoy the benefit of a full replacement--at a cost that you can easily afford.

  • Claims adjusters use depreciation tables in arriving at a settlement with you.
  • You have the option of accepting the cost of repairs or depreciated value of a damaged item; the mover's liability is generally limited to whichever is less.
  • High value items or bonefide antiques should be specifically listed and their values stated on a descriptive inventory with supporting documentation.
