Extraordinary High Value Items

You must advise your moving company in writing and identify all items that are in your shipment that are considered to be of extraordinary value. These items are defined as items having a value greater than $ 100.00 per pound per article such as:

Antiques
Art Collections
Cameras
Coin Collection
Computer Software
Crystal
Currency
Figurines
Furs
Oriental Rugs
Precious Stones or Gems
Silver & Silverware
Video Cameras

A High Value Inventory sheet must be completed and signed by you prior to your move if you include items of extraordinary value in your shipment. Any settlement is limited to the valuation you declare for the entire shipment in the event of a claim. If you do not list all extraordinary value items and/or fail to sign the High Value Inventory sheet, the moving company liability for loss of or damage to those items will be limited to no more than $100.00 per pound per article, based upon the actual weight of the article. This does not apply to shipments under the "basic carrier liability" option.

You must declare the total amount of the released value that you declare for your goods. This total should include the value of items, including all items of extraordinary value. Record the total value on the bill of lading. You should note that the protection for items of extraordinary value is not available for shipments which are released to the moving company's value of 60 cents per pound per article in the basic carrier liability option.
