Baker Insurance
Planes is authorized by your company to arrange for insurance on your move in compliance with your corporate relocation policy.
  • Although your cargo is insured, damage to your property is not covered by this policy.
  • If there is any damage at either property, contact your Planes Counselor immediately.
  • You must note the damage on the van operator's paperwork.
  • The inventory is a legal document indicating the condition of your goods.
  • Damaged or missing items must be noted as claims.
  • A claim for missing items that are not noted as such on the inventory will be denied.
  • We recommend that once all items have been received you mark the inventory "subject to further inspection."
  • If you have a claim to report, contact Baker Insurance immediately.
Your Policy
  • Your company has authorized Full Replacement Value Coverage through Baker Insurance.
  • Your possessions are protected up to the declared value.
  • The premium paid to Baker Insurance insures your goods during your move for up to $50,000.00 Full Replacement Value.
  • Coverage over $50,000.00 is available at a cost of $5.00 per $1,000 of coverage.
  • For additional coverage contact your Planes Counselor prior to the move date.
IMPORTANT: Do not under insure. The insurance company will pro-rate their liability in direct proportion to how the actual value of your goods relates to the released value.

Explanation of Coverage
  • Full Replacement Insurance Coverage compensates you for the repair, replacement, or reimbursement of lost or damaged items at today's prices.
  • The insurer has the option to repair a damaged item rather than replace, provided repairs can be performed satisfactorily.
  • Fine art, antiques, and some collections in excess of $5,000.00 may be considered for insurance if specifically listed by value and description. An additional premium will be required.
  • Coverage for your high value items is available at an additional cost to you or your company at $8.50 per $1,000.00 in coverage.
  • Any high value item requires a proof of value, receipt, or current appraisal.
While In Storage
  • Your goods are insured for up to 90 days under the initial Baker Insurance policy.
  • Beyond 90 days, the charges to continue coverage are $1.50 per $1000.00 value, i.e., to continue $50,000.00 of coverage the cost would be $75.00 per month.
  • Excluded from coverage is storage at any "mini" or "self-storage" warehouse.
