Moving Company Damaged My Furniture. How I Got $1,200 Back.

Moving company scratched a $2,000 table. They offered $50. I emailed: "Your contract includes valuation coverage. Item value is $2,000. Photos of damage attached. Please compensate according to your liability terms." They paid $1,200. Moving companies must offer valuation coverage by FMCSA rules.

The lesson here is that most refund denials are not final. Companies have discretionary policies that allow exceptions, but they rarely advertise them. The key is knowing which policy to reference and how to frame your request.

If you are dealing with a similar situation with Moving Company Damaged, do not accept the first denial. Research their refund policy, find the specific clause that supports your case, and write a professional appeal referencing it. That single step can turn a “no” into a “yes.”

I use LaimRefund to do this research automatically. It searches the platform’s policies and relevant consumer laws, then drafts a professional appeal letter. Free to check your odds, only $3.99 to unlock the full letter.
