Are my stored possessions covered by my homeowner/renter policy?

Many homeowner/renter policies provide only limited coverage for possessions stored away from the insured location. You should contact your insurance agent or carrier for more specific details on your coverage.

What's covered by SafeStor insurance?

Safestor covers you in case of loss or damage to your stored goods from fire, hurricane, tornado, wind, earthquake, vandalism, lightning, smoke, hail, building collapse, explosion, leaking water and burglary. Burglary coverage is limited to 50% of the coverage amount. Also, there must be visible signs of forced entry and a police report must be filed. Furthermore, there is no coverage for loss caused by or resulting from war, flood (or surface water), vermin or climatic conditions like rust or mildew.

What if I remove my goods before my coverage ends?

Notify us in writing that you want to cancel. We will gladly remit a refund for all full policy months not used.

How much of my loss can I recover?

You can recover today's value of your stored belongings, (original cost minus depreciation), up to the amount of insurance you purchased.
