Claims are one of the biggest pain points for both movers and customers. But with better processes and smarter tools, companies are finding ways to lower damage rates and build stronger trust.

More movers are using photo documentation before and after the move, allowing teams to record item conditions clearly. Protective materials like reinforced blankets, reusable crates, and corner guards are also becoming standard. Meanwhile, digital checklists and load sequencing tools help crews stay organized and reduce mistakes on busy days.

Strong communication plays a major role too. Setting proper expectations, confirming inventory details, and walking customers through the process all help minimize surprises and disputes.

By combining better training, better tools, and better communication, movers are proving that fewer claims lead to higher satisfaction—and more repeat business.
