Free Freelance Mover
Service Agreement
One dropped heirloom or a blown-out lower back and you're staring down a lawsuit that'll liquidate your bank account. Without a signed paper, you're just a guy with a truck getting stiffed by a client who 'forgot' about the three flights of stairs.
Pro Contractor Tip
Insert a 'Limitation of Liability' clause to cap your financial exposure at the total cost of the move rather than the replacement value of their entire inventory.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Freelance Mover, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if the client 'forgets' to mention they live on the fourth floor with no elevator?
You include a 'Difficult Access' surcharge in your contract. Having a written price for every flight of stairs means you don't waste time arguing on the sidewalk while your clock is running; you just point to the line item and keep moving.
How do I stop people from canceling while Iām already idling in their driveway?
You enforce a non-refundable deposit and a 'Short-Notice Cancellation' fee. A signed agreement ensures that if they flake, you still get paid for the gas and the slot you could've filled with a real job.
Am I on the hook if their cheap particle-board furniture snaps during a standard lift?
Not if you have an 'Inherent Vice' disclaimer. Your contract should state you aren't liable for structural failure on items not built for transport, shifting the risk back to their poor taste in furniture instead of your wallet.
