Notice
of Limited Liability:
SelfMoves
provides you a commercial method of self moving. You assume the
responsibility and control of your move – including all packing
and loading of your items. Your items are secured behind the bulkhead
wall/divider and SelfMoves is only responsible for damage caused
by our negligence. We are not responsible for any damage caused
by improper packing or loading of shipment.
SelfMoves
provides two types of liability coverage for your shipment. The
first is catastrophic liability which covers your shipment at
$2.00 per pound per piece, subject to a maximum of $15,000 per
trailer. Liability is limited for only the conditions listed hereafter:
fire, lightning, windstorm or hail, trailer overturn, trailer
collision or total truck theft/vandalism. This standard coverage
is included with your quote at no additional charge.
The second
coverage is carrier negligence liability which SelfMoves accepts
liability at 10 cents per pound per piece for loss or damage caused
by carrier negligence. Additional coverage for loss or damage
due to carrier negligence is available at the following rates:
- For a $75
charge, the coverage would increase to $1.00 per pound per piece
up to a maximum of $7,500 per trailer
- For a $100
charge, the coverage would increase to $1.50 per pound per piece
up to a maximum of $10,000 per trailer.
- For a $125
charge, the coverage would increase to $2.00 per pound per piece
up to a maximum of $15,000 per trailer.
SelfMoves
will not accept any claim for currency, accounts, bills,
evidence of debt, notes precious stone or jewelry, money, securities
or loss or damage caused by acts of war, nuclear explosion, riots,
or civil commotion, or water damage (except as noted below.)
Liability
will begin after SelfMoves or its carrier has been notified the
goods have been loaded onto trailer and trailer has been
picked up at origin. Liability will cease when the trailer has
been tendered for unloading at destination. It is understood that
SelfMoves and its carrier will assume no liability if the
bulkhead is intact at the time of delivery, except in the case
of water damage, which is covered at the standard liability coverage
of 10 cents per pound per piece.
Additionally,
SelfMoves will not accept liability for loss or damage caused
by the loading of a hazardous nature on board the trailer. Items
of hazardous nature include, but are not limited to, inflammables,
aerosols, explosives, plants and items subject to federal or state
legal quarantines.
