Be on hand to accept delivery. If you cannot be there personally, be sure you authorize an adult
to be your representative to accept delivery and pay the charges for you.
On the day of delivery, the van operator will attempt to contact you by phone and/or will make an
appearance at residence if he is unable to reach you. If you are unable to accept delivery of your
shipment within the free waiting time (i.e., two hours) after notification of arrival at destination, you may request waiting time until delivery can be made.
Check your household goods as they are unloaded. If there is a change in the condition of the
property from that noted on the inventory at the time of loading or if any items are missing, note
discrepancies on the van operator's copy of the inventory sheet. By signing the inventory sheet,
you are acknowledging receipt of all items listed. Personally report any loss or damage to your
salesperson or move coordinator.
When unloading, each piece of furniture will be placed as you direct, including the laying of rugs and setting up any beds disassembled at origin. However, mattresses will not be unpacked, and appliances and/or fixtures will NOT be installed. At your request and at an additional charge, your salesperson or move coordinator can arrange for this service.
The mover is not obligated to rearrange your furniture.
Place a floor plan of your new home by the entrance, which the movers can use to determine where each piece of furniture should go.
Keep all documents pertaining to your move in a safe place. You will need them for verification of moving expenses when you file your federal income tax returns.
To prevent possible damage, television sets, other electronic equipment and major appliances should not be used for 24 hours after delivery, allowing them time to adjust to room temperature.
