Moving Insurance Options
At Ameritex Movers, we understand that your belongings are more than just possessions. They represent memories, investments, and cherished keepsakes. While we uphold an exemplary standard of care (with less than a 1% damage claim rate), we believe in providing options that match your unique needs and comfort level.
Rest assured, we’ve got options for you.
OPTION 1 - Carrier's Minimum Liability
The default protection, available for every move, is Carrier’s Minimum Liability. It offers coverage at $0.60 per pound per article. Though typically sufficient for minor repairs, it might not cover replacement.
Who it’s for: Ideal if you’re moving mainly low-value or easily replaceable items.
Note: Consider self-transport for particularly valuable or fragile items, or explore additional coverage below.
Enhanced Liability Coverage
For those seeking an added layer of protection beyond Carrier’s Minimum Liability, we offer Enhanced Liability Coverage. This option provides higher per-pound coverage for items, offering better compensation for damaged or lost belongings without the need for full replacement cost insurance.
Who itโs for: Individuals moving moderately valuable items who want extra protection without opting for full insurance.
Note: Discuss this option with your Move Coordinator to understand the specifics and costs involved.
Option 2 - Full Coverage with Baker International Insurance
For comprehensive peace of mind, we recommend Baker International Insurance. Offering full coverage for all items, this independent agency ensures 100% replacement value.
Who it’s for: Perfect for those with valuable possessions or heirlooms requiring special care.
Contact Baker International: (800) 356-0093 or www.bakerintl.com
Important: Arrangements must be made at least 48 hours before the move begins.
Option 3 - Homeowner's Insurance
You may already have the coverage you need under your current homeowner’s insurance policy.
Who it’s for: Those who want to utilize existing coverage without additional expenditure.
Pro Tip: Review your policy or consult with your insurance agent to understand what’s included.
Additional Tips for Choosing Moving Insurance
Selecting the right moving insurance involves understanding your specific needs and the value of your possessions. Here are some tips:
- Inventory Your Belongings: Make a detailed list of items and their values to determine the level of coverage you need.
- Assess the Risks: Consider the distance of your move and the types of items being transported.
- Consult with Experts: Speak with insurance agents or your moving company to get professional advice tailored to your move.
