Hi, Is it common to charge extra for insurance? I thought that companies should have such insurance in place - not only for the customer, but to protect themselves ... You're talking two different types of insurance. When we moved recently we checked and our home insurance covered the move. If it hadn't we would have taken out their cover to take into account any damages they may have caused. Some people don't feel the need to pay extra for insurance and when / if accidents happen, that's when the fun starts!!! A good company will always ask if you have insurance for your goods in transit. The removal company had their own liability insurance which covered them for any accidents they may have had while carrying out the job.

Hi, one important point you mentioned already ... insurance. Whomever you inquire, ask him to submit the insurance cert along with proposal! When we moved last time, they destroyed an item, which was 10 times the price of the moving ... all we could do was to not pay them - the rest of the damage is our problem ... Pls note that at peak times, most companies are subcontracting or using part-timers .... very often unskilled ... and pretty careless Which is why I suggested ProMove as they only use their own employees. He will also quote for insurance for you.
