Many apartment, condo, co-op and commercial buildings require a moving company to provide a Certificate of Insurance before the moving crew can enter the property.
Lovely Moving & Storage can assist with COI documentation for moves where building management requires it.
COI requirements can vary from one building to another. Ask your building manager, superintendent or management company whether a COI is required and request their written insurance instructions or sample certificate when available.
Send those requirements to us before moving day so they can be reviewed and prepared as part of your move.
COI requirements are common in managed apartment buildings and may be connected with service-elevator reservations or approved moving hours.
Customers planning an apartment move can review our residential moving services and NYC elevator moving guide.
Office and commercial properties may also have insurance requirements. Businesses can learn more about our office and commercial moving services.
Building requirements are determined by the individual property rather than the borough. Customers moving in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx or Staten Island should confirm requirements with management.
Read our complete NYC moving COI guide for additional information about preparing the documentation before moving day.
