Before the move:

Step 3: Get additional moving insurance.

You will generally need to contact the mover within 24 hours of delivery and provide an itemized list of what was damaged as well as proof of damage

Step 6: File a written claim with your Insurance company.

Step 7: Take photos of the damage.
Once again, pictures are your friend. Take multiple photos of the broken items and attach them to your complaint. Add any images you have from before the move of these things. This is a crucial step in reporting the harm done to your goods or house.
