Certificate of Insurance Moving
Do You Need A Certificate Of Insurance (COI) For Your Move?
NYC Movers provide certificate of insurance (COI) at $45 each. A COI is a document that verifies insurance coverage for your moving company and specifies the condition that the insurance will be used. Most buildings with move-in/move-out deadlines, elevator deadlines, doorman, and/or concierge services require a Certificate of Insurance (COI) before moving day. Especially NYC luxury/high-rise buildings. They may only allow you to hire the mover or use their services when you provide the movers COI. Therefore, it is generally a good idea to consult with your building(s) to see if a COI is needed for your move.
FOR CUSTOMERS
If you need a COI for your building(s), here’s what we need from you:
1. Ask your building/management for a Sample COI (usually a PDF). However, if they do not have a Sample COI, ask them to provide a list of COI requirements. The list should specify the Certificate Holder’s name and any Additional Insured information.
2. Please make sure the apartment number# is clearly listed for the building(s).
3. Also include the contact information (email and phone) for the building(s)/management where possible.
We make it super easy to obtain a COI. After you gather all the information above, just send it to us. We will process the COI, email it to your building/management, and copy you on the correspondence.
Note: COI’s if needed, is $45 per location.

What is Basic Valuation?
It’s primarily basic protection for household goods in the event of damaged or loss. At The ProMovers, Basic Valuation is registered at 30 cents per pound per article. If a 20-pound item were to sustain damage during the move, your claims process will only pay out $6 total (@20 pounds x 0.30 cents)—regardless of the item’s value. People may assume that if a $300 table sustained damage, the movers liability and coverage would be to pay in full. This assumption often lead to disappointment when they become aware of the principles and the biding laws.
