Prices, Cancellation, Insurance

We take pride in providing transparent and reliable services to our customers. Therefore, we want to ensure that you have a clear understanding of our policies on prices, cancellation, and insurance.

Your estimate price is based on the accuracy of the inventory provided. As some estimates provided may be over-estimated to ensure a total price, you are only responsible for 85% of the shipment size/cost quoted (subject to a 1400 lb.minimum).

The prices provided by our system are final and binding, and the mover is not permitted to change them. In case of any discrepancy between the inventory or restrictions submitted by the customer and the actual inventory or restrictions on the pickup date, changes and updates must be made within the system and no later than the day of pickup. Customers are responsible for making these changes, which will be approved by the mover within the system.

Cancellation within 24 hours of booking incurs no fee, except for reservations within 72 hours of the move date, which are subject to a thirty six percent cancellation fee. After the initial 24 hours, a ten percent fee applies, but it does not pertain to moving reservations made within 72 hours of the scheduled move date, where a thirty six percent cancellation fee is applied.

We understand that unexpected events may occur, and we offer a flexible fee structure that includes that all cancellation fees collected by iMoving can be either used within 12 months or transferred to anyone of your choice.

The mover provides basic insurance coverage for each move in accordance with federal regulations. However, customers are advised to obtain additional insurance for full coverage.

Please note that while we facilitate the connection between you and the carrier, we cannot be held responsible for any delays, cancellations, loss, damages, or theft of goods that may occur during the moving process. If you need to file a claim, you must do so directly with the carrier. However, we are here to assist you as a mediator in finding a resolution if you encounter any issues with the carrier.

If you need to cancel your move, please do so by phone or in writing to iMoving. Please keep in mind that once your move is scheduled, the carrier reserves space and determines truck routes, so canceling the move may result in compensation for the carrier.

We do not make any promises regarding pickup or delivery times or the carrier's location to provide transportation services. In the rare case that we are unable to find a carrier before the scheduled pickup date, we will issue a full refund, releasing iMoving from any liability.

If your move is postponed, you may place your reservation on hold, and your deposit can be used as a deposit on a future move arranged by iMoving, as long as it is within 12 months of the initial deposit date.

We hope these policies provide you with the clarity and flexibility you need when working with us. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns..
