Delivery Receipt
A Delivery Receipt is the document you sign when your belongings are delivered to your new home. It confirms that your shipment has arrived and notes the condition of your items at the time of delivery.
What’s Included on a Delivery Receipt
- A list of the items delivered.
- The condition of your belongings when they arrive.
- Space for you (the customer) to make notes about missing or damaged items.
- The mover’s confirmation that delivery is complete.
Why It Matters
- Serves as proof of delivery for both you and the moving company.
- Protects your rights if you need to file a claim later.
- Helps keep a clear record of the move from start to finish.
Example:
Your shipment arrives at your new apartment in Boston. As the movers unload, you notice one box with broken glass inside. You write this down on the Delivery Receipt before signing it. This record ensures your claim is supported and handled quickly.
