What if a Moving Company Breaks Something?

In the process of any relocation, there is the chance that your belongings may be damaged. The risk of this happening is greatly reduced when you hire a moving company. However, there are still rare instances in which a moving company causes damage to your personal effects and must provide restitution. Fortunately, the vast majority of legitimate moving companies carry insurance to protect you in the event that this happens.

If your belongings are damaged by a moving company, the first thing you need to do is document the damages, preferably with photographs. Once you have logged the damage, contact the moving company as soon as possible, and make a report of what happened. At that point, the company may request that you file a claim with their insurance company who will guide you through the compensation process.

While the risk of damage to your belongings is always present during a move, the smart thing to do in order to reduce this risk is to hire a reputable and experienced moving company.
