One of the most daunting tasks when relocating is the preparation of your list of belongings.

This value statement must clearly state the overall value of your property so that the removal company also sets the estimated value of the goods in transit.

Carefully read all the terms and conditions of your contract with the removal company to ensure that you fully understand all the details regarding your move.

Damage Insurance

They usually offer inclusive insurance that guarantees against any damage occurring while packing, loading, transporting, or unloading. The damage cover amounts to the value estimated according to the declaration of value. The removal company must issue a certificate of insurance in any case.
