Each item you store includes $100 of free Declared Value protection, meaning, in the extremely rare event that a stored item is damaged or lost, you are automatically protected up to $100 for each affected item. Additional protection may be purchased for a cost of $5 per $100 of Declared Value protection added. The maximum protection per item is $400 and the maximum protection for all items combined is $1,000.
Declared Value must be allocated on a per item basis. If you decide to purchase additional Declared Value you will receive small orange Declared Value stickers from our crew at your Packing Supply Handout. The number of stickers you receive corresponds to the amount of Declared Value purchased. Each sticker equals $100 of additional Declared Value. It is the customer’s responsibility to allocate and attach these stickers to the items they would like to further protect.
There are certain items like glassware, mirrors, Ikea furniture, and others (please check our Terms and Conditions) that cannot be insured! Electronics not in their original packaging can only be reimbursed for the cost of storage.
Please note that Declared Value protection refers to the total value of a package/item, not $100 for each individual article contained within.
