Title: Extraordinary value items
Content: All items in your shipment, which are considered to be of extraordinary
value, must be identified. You must advice your van line agent in
writing that they are in your shipment. These items are defined as items
having a value greater than $ 100.00 per pound per article. For example:
-
Antiques
-
Crystal
-
Precious Stones or Gems
-
Art Collections
-
Currency
-
Silver and Silverware
-
Cameras
-
Figurines
-
Video Cameras
-
Computer Software
-
Furs
-
Coin Collection
-
Oriental Rugs
If you include items of extraordinary value in your shipment, a High
Value Inventory sheet must be completed and signed by you prior to your
move. In the event of a claim, any settlement is limited to the
valuation you declare for the entire shipment. If you fail to list all
extraordinary value items and/or fail to sign the High Value Inventory
sheet, the van line 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 (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. Please note that the protection for items of extraordinary value
is not available for shipments, which are released to the van line's
value of 60 cents per pound per article (basic carrier liability
option).
