Terms & Conditions

Parties: This moving service Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Superior Mover (“Company”) and the customer identified under the contract and signature.

Understanding The Services: Superior Mover will provide moving services with the adequate protection needed to comply with the move. Load all items and place them in the truck safely and securely. The items will be unloaded at the new destination. Any furniture pieces that need to be disassembled will be taken care of and reassembled at the new location. Furniture will be placed in the desired direction of the customer.

Booking: Once a quote has been approved and a deposit fee has been received, the move coordinator will guide the client throughout the next following steps of their move. The movers who will be attending the job will call the client 30 minutes prior to arrival at the pick-up location on the moving day. There is a one-hour window/buffer time for bookings. Reservations are not confirmed until a deposit is received.

CANCELLATION POLICY

If the client needs to cancel the booking, the client will lose their deposit. Any cancellation on the moving process has a non-refundable deposit.

In case the client wants to stop the moving service at the moment of the moving process, before its completion – the client is responsible for payment from the moment the moving starts until the moment the movers stop working.

CUSTOMER AGREES TO

Be present on the day of the move at the arranged time of arrival.

The company has permission to move the belongings listed in the client’s household.

Have their items packed into appropriate boxes, containers and organized on the day of the move unless they requested packing services.

Personal belongings, such as money, jewelry or other expensive valuables, the value of which exceeds 1000 USD, should be kept with the customer until the company arrives at the job site.

Clear any obstacles that can interfere with the moving process.

Do not interfere in the process throughout the move, nor have any involvement with the company’s employees.

It is the customer’s responsibility to make sure that everything has been loaded onto the truck at the pick-up location and to make sure that all contents have been unloaded from the truck at the drop-off location.

Our moving coordinators do their best to estimate the predicted time to complete the move; however, the quotations provided by our specialists are not guaranteed and may have a slight delay in terms of the hours required to complete the work. The customer agrees to pay the full cost of the moving service.

BILLING

The hourly rate begins when the movers arrive at the job site and ends when the move has been completed. For smaller moves, there is a 3-hour minimum charge set, and the customer will be notified before proceeding with the services.

Payments shall be made on the job site after the completion of the move. The customer will receive a receipt after the billing department has received the payment. We accept payments via cash, e-transfer, debit Visa and MasterCard.

The deposit fee that was received in the booking process will be deducted from the final invoice and refunded to the client on the moving day.

If a second truck is needed to complete the move due to large quantities of items, we will provide the customer with a second truck at an additional cost.

The employees working at the job site are given a 15-minute break every 2 hours. The time spent on these breaks is included in the total number of hours worked and charged to the customer at the hourly rate.

In order to process damage claims, the full payment has to be received on the job site. In the case of a credit card chargeback, we will be seeking legal action.

There are additional costs associated with moving appliances, gym equipment, pianos and items that are not household goods. The client will be notified before proceeding with the booking to prevent unexpected charges on the day of the move.

The full payment for the job shall be received after the completion of the move. If the movers suspect any upcoming payment problems on the job site, they will forward it to the billing department, and we will collect payment an hour before the completion of the move.

A consequence of a non-payment can lead to 15% of interest annually.

A consequence of a non-payment can lead to transporting the customer’s goods to a storage facility until payment has been made.
