The Moving Insurance Myth

The standard no cost moving coverage provided by intrastate moving companies is a diminished value reimbursement based upon $0.60 per pound of the damaged item or part thereof. In Arizona, as in most states, moving companies cannot legally sell insurance or additional insurance coverage simply because they are not licensed insurance broker or underwriters. If you pay a moving company for additional coverage keep in mind that no policy, policy addendum, policy rider or endorsement will be issued and no valid document will exist providing you with the coverage that you have paid for. Moving insurance coverage must be issued by an insurance company licensed by the Arizona Department of Insurance. There are several reputable insurance companies that offer moving insurance. Start by contacting your renter’s or homeowner’s insurance agent.

Selecting boxes for your move does require a few considerations to insure that your items are moved without damage due to box failure. Overloading boxes can result in a crushed or busted box resulting in damage to the contents. To determine if the boxes that you are choosing will suit your use look for the manufacturer’s stamp. The circular stamp found on one of the flaps will contain gross weight, minimum edge crush ratings and possibly bursting strength. The lightest weight single wall box that should be used for moving will have the following ratings: Max Wt. (contents) 65#, Burst rating 200# per square inch, Minimum Edge Crush 32# (per inch width). A box with this rating can be used when the box and contents weigh less than 65#. This weight limit works fine for multiple light to medium-weight items in a box where individual boxes are packed tightly in organized rows and stacks. If a single heavy item will be placed in the box we suggest limiting the weight to 45# or upgrading the box with a 275# burst rating, minimum edge crush of 48# and Max weight rating of 100#. Standard moving industry box sizes (Length X Width X Depth in inches): 16 ¾ X 12 ½ X 12 ½ = Small (for books, C.D.s and other small heavy weight items). 18 X 18 X 16 = Medium (for non-heavy items). 18 X 18 X 24 = Large (for bulky items and kitchen pots, pans and counter top appliances). 15 X 12 ½ X 10 ½ = File (for legal and letter size files). 18 X 18 X 28 = Dish pack - double wall box. Dishes, stemware, glasses, fragile items. Note: double wall box ratings = 200# burst, 42# minimum edge crush, max load 80#.

Metro Movers did an outstanding job with our move from Scottsdale to Tucson.
Lynette was my first contact to get a quote and she was very fast,
accurate and accommodating. We had a 4 foot by 6 foot oil painting that
needed to be boxed for storage and she said they could do it and did do it.
We had to cancel the first moving date because our house sale fell
through and then the second moving date had to be moved up by a day with only 2
days notice (I spoke to Lynette on Christmas eve to change our move from 12/27
to 12/26) and she was able to make the schedule changes without any extra
charges.
Donald and Garett did an outstanding job packing the moving truck, protecting
our furniture, boxing our oil painting and unloading the contents into a
storage locker. Donald and Garett were very professional and fast, they
had all of the necessary equipment to protect and secure our household contents
in their carpet lined truck for the drive to Tucson from Scottsdale.
I would use Allstar Metro Movers again, if the need arises and would definitely
recommend them to everyone.

The movers were friendly, professional, and obviously knew what they were doing. They had a smaller truck to work with but knew how to load our furniture to minimize the number of loads they had to take. No issues whatsoever with damaged furniture, etc. We are extremely happy with the move. It went rather smoothly.

The movers so amazing! They kept within a reasonable time frame, they were professional and respectful of our items. And Lynette who did our scheduling was so nice especially with my regular schedule changes.

Read an article the other day about “All-Star” movers and was reminded of how the movers hired from your company warned me about them. That was about five or more years ago and man were they right! I’ve used your company 3 times now and have always been pleased with the work and the price. Each time I gave the movers an unsolicited tip to show my satisfaction. You may recall my last move, first week of August, when I was making the most stressful house purchase I’ve ever made and hope to never repeat. It was hell!! We had three moving dates and changed from a small trailer to a large one and finally a small one again. You could have added to my stress and made things worse but you didn’t. You remained flexible and accommodating during this extremely stressful time. My crazy seller tried to back out on two closing dates and after a week delay from the second closing date, we moved. I’ve bought and sold a number of houses during my life but this one was a nightmare. As I look back on this ordeal, I remain thankful for you, your company and the good movers provided. You’ve earned my future business and referrals. Thanks again!
