Original Documents Packers and Movers Bill for claim
The original documents typically required to process a claim (either for reimbursement from your employer or an insurance claim for damaged/lost goods) related to packers and movers services are:
1. Primary Financial & Service Documents
* Original Bill/Invoice (with GST details):
* This is the most crucial document.
* Must be a Genuine GST Bill/Invoice with the company's GSTIN.
* Should clearly show a breakup of all charges (packing, transportation, loading/unloading, insurance, taxes, etc.).
* Must include the company letterhead, registered address, invoice number, date, company stamp, and authorized signature.
* Original Payment Receipt (Cash Receipt/Proof of Payment):
* Proof that you paid the movers and packers.
* Consignment Copy / Lorry Receipt (LR Copy) / Bill of Lading (BOL):
* This is the primary transport contract document.
* It contains details of the consignor, consignee, driver, consignment number, and terms and conditions.
2. Supporting Documents
* Packing List / Item List / Inventory Copy:
* A detailed list of all goods packed and moved.
* This is vital for determining the value of the move and is essential for insurance claims and verifying items upon delivery.
* Transit Insurance Papers/Policy Certificate:
* If you purchased insurance, this document confirms the coverage.
* Delivery Receipt:
* The receipt signed at the destination. Crucially, if items were damaged or missing, ensure this was noted on the receipt before signing.
* Copy of Quotation:
* The initial quote provided by the movers. Sometimes, multiple quotes from different companies are required for reimbursement claims.
For Damage/Loss Claims (Insurance)
In addition to the above, for a claim against damaged or lost goods, you will also need:
* Photographs/Videos of the damaged goods and original packaging (ideally date-stamped).
* Damage/Loss Report or a formal claim form submitted to the insurance company or moving company.
* Survey Report (if an inspector was sent to assess the damage).
Important Note:
* Always ensure the bill is original and has a verifiable GSTIN.
* When receiving the delivery, carefully check all items and note any damage or missing items on the delivery receipt/consignment copy before signing off on the delivery. This is a critical step for a successful damage claim.
