3 Pricing
When placing an order for Services, you may be eligible for either
prorated hourly pricing or
fixed pricing. The type of pricing applicable to your order will be communicated to you during booking. Vegas-Moving only accepts cash and debit/credit card payments. A 2.9% processing fee apply for all types of payments. Free materials and tools used during service and returned back after service: protective blankets, tools, hand-trucks, dollies. All costs can be found inside your estimate and estimate terms. Additional charges such as Tolls, Parking, and any fines given to the service crew due to the client will be included in the total bill with no exceptions.
3.1
Prorated hourly pricing means that you will receive a quoted hourly rate, and you will be responsible for paying for all time worked at the quoted hourly rate. Labor time starts immediately when the crew arrives to the service location and ends when the service crew finishes the final portion of your project(s). Service hours run continuously up until full completion. Time will be calculated in 30 min increments and will round to the closest 30 minutes increment. Prorated hourly pricing is subject to a 2 hour minimum charge and a Travel time charge that is billed in addition to the labor time. Fuel is an additional charge and is mandatory for all jobs. All of our services have a minimum of 30 (thirty) minutes of travel time except subscription-based services. If the service crew has to travel to multiple destinations, additional 30 (thirty) minutes of travel time will be added. The true total cost of your project shall be based on the total number of hours it will take to complete the job, combined with the cost of any additional services requested by you, and any of the additional supplies designated below, which are not included in the labor. Additional services not included in the hourly price may include but shall not be limited to: vehicle use (driving between locations), fuel surcharge, heavy item fee, additional labor. Additional labor time may be added to your hourly billing total as a result of the following encountered when performing the services contemplated hereunder: staircases, elevators, hoisting, narrow hallways, long walking distances, moving of heavy objects, furniture assembly/disassembly, loading and unloading, not having immediate access to premises where work is performed, traffic, inclement weather (high heat, rain, flood, snow, high winds, etc). Please consult Vegas-Moving customer service representative for more information about applicable minimums on hourly pricing. When booking a prorated hourly move, you may receive an estimate of fees and costs. This is not a formal estimate but is an estimate of the total fees and costs that may be charged if you use the entire amount of time that you reserve. Your total charges may be higher or lower than the estimated total during booking. The length of your move, and your total costs, will depend upon the circumstances of your move, including, but not limited to, the move location(s), the type and amount of property to be moved, your move readiness. Providing an accurate and detailed inventory list to Vegas-Moving in advance of the service is necessary to ensure that enough time is reserved for your move and to provide a reasonably accurate estimate of final fees and costs.
3.2
Fixed pricing means that the price you are quoted is the price that you will pay for your move, regardless of the length of the move. This is sometimes referred to as a “binding estimate.” Fixed pricing is, however, subject to a price revision if the information you provide to Vegas-Moving is determined on move day to have been incomplete or inaccurate. Stated differently, a binding estimate must accurately describe the requirements, including all of your property, the state of your property (and your move readiness), the location(s) for the service (and material details regarding the location(s)), and all requested services necessary to complete the project. If the circumstances of the project are determined to be different than as described during booking, you may be required to sign a revised agreement with adjusted fixed pricing. In the event that you do not agree to a revision, your project may not be able to be completed or may be canceled.
Any quoted rate may change until you place an order for Services. All quotes are subject to change based on availability and other factors, such as demand and location.
Please note that the number of providers (crew members) assigned to, or that perform, your project may differ from the number listed on any quote or estimate. In the event that a different number of providers is assigned to or performs your move and you have agreed to prorated hourly pricing, then, your quoted rate will be updated based on the number of Third Party Providers that actually perform your move.
3.3 Payment
After your order for Services is complete and you have received the Services, Vegas-Moving will send you an e-mail for the final invoice amount (the “Charges”). If you have paid a deposit, such deposit will be applied to your balance, and all remaining Charges are immediately due and payable, and you are responsible for payment of all Charges for Services ordered and received through the Vegas-Moving Platforms. You authorize Vegas-Moving to charge the credit or debit card that you provide when placing your order for Services for all Charges. Charges will be inclusive of applicable taxes where required by law. Charges paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Vegas-Moving. If the charge to your credit or debit card is declined, you authorize Vegas-Moving to use a secondary payment method provided by you, if applicable. In the event that Vegas-Moving brings an action to enforce its right to payment of the Charges hereunder, Vegas-Moving will be entitled to recover, in addition to all other amounts and relief, its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees.
If for any reason other than the fault of Vegas-Moving or a Third Party Provider delivery cannot be made at the address requested for delivery during booking, Vegas-Moving or the Third Party Provider may, at their option, cause the articles contained in your shipment to be stored in a warehouse or other storage facility selected by Vegas-Moving or the Third Party Provider at or near the point of delivery or at other available points, at your cost. You also agree to pay for the full cost of any additional shipping, delivery, or other moving charges associated therewith. Vegas-Moving will not be responsible for any damages that may occur to your items while in such storage facility, and you agree to indemnify and hold Vegas-Moving and the Third Party Providers harmless from any and all such damages or claims.
In addition, as an alternative, if delivery of a shipment is refused by you at the shipping destination, or if you or your authorized representative fails to receive or claim the property shipped within fifteen (15) days after written notice by United States mail addressed to you at your shipping or destination address, or if you fail or refuse to pay applicable charges in accordance with these Terms or any applicable tariff, Vegas-Moving may sell the shipped property at its option, either (a) upon notice in the manner authorized by law, or (b) at public auction to highest bidder for cash at a public sale to be held at a time and place named by Vegas-Moving, thirty (30) days notice of which sale shall have been given in writing to you. The proceeds of any sale shall be applied toward payment of charges applicable to shipment and toward expenses of notice, advertising and sale, and of storing, caring for, and maintaining property prior to sale, and the balance, if any, shall be paid to owner of property;
4 Canceling an Order or Discontinuing Services
You may change or cancel an order for Services at any time, including changing the reservation date and/or shipping or destination locations. However, modifications to an order may be subject to an increase or change in pricing, depending on availability and other factors submitted by you. Such changes may also be subject to an additional modification or cancellation fee. Any and all changes to an order will continue to be governed by these Terms, and you understand and agree to such Terms by placing a change or cancellation request. To place a change or cancellation request you must speak to the service crew and they will complete a written request, request from the crew (provider) in writing is required. The client must pay for the service time from the very start up until cancellation and for any other related expenses, that may include but shall not be limited to: vehicle use fee, fuel surcharge, additional labor, additional travel time, storage costs. If customer wishes to stop the service, additional hours needed to relinquish client’s possessions will be added to total costs and billed to the client. If client does not behave in an appropriate manner (insults the crew, tries to force, refuses to pay etc.), we have the right to stop assisting the client immediately and leave client’s belongings or transport them to a secure storage location of our choice. In such case, you will be obligated to pay for all additional labor time needed to relinquish your possessions and/or transport and unload your possessions at the storage location of our choice and any associated storage costs.
5 Deposits, deposit refunds, rescheduling
Vegas-Moving may request a deposit in order to confirm your appointment. The deposit is fully refundable until 24 hours before the initial appointment and isn’t refundable after that time mark. Vegas-Moving offers free rescheduling until 4 hours before any appointment. We will apply the entire deposit towards the total amount owed by you upon completion of your project. In case of customer not showing up on time or canceling the project after 24 hours before the initial appointment or requesting rescheduling after 4 hours before any appointment, initial or rescheduled, we have the right to not refund any deposits, although we may choose to do so. Also at any moment during the service, we reserve the right to stop the job and request for a deposit. These types of “on-site” deposits are calculated with regards to the entire job, including materials, and other extras. If the collected sum is more than the actual cost of services, at the very end, the amount will be recalculated with accordance to actual work performed, and the difference will be reimbursed.
5.1 Reservation Changes
Subject to availability and any reservation change fees, you may choose to change your service date to another future date.
6 Network Access and Devices
Use of the Vegas-Moving Platforms may require access to a data network. You are responsible for obtaining the data network access necessary to use such Vegas-Moving Platforms, if any. Your mobile network's data and messaging rates and fees may apply if you access or use the Vegas-Moving Platforms from a wireless-enabled device. You are responsible for acquiring and updating compatible hardware or devices necessary to access and use the Vegas-Moving Platforms and any updates thereto. Vegas-Moving does not guarantee that the Vegas-Moving Platforms, or any portion thereof, will function on any particular hardware or devices. In addition, the Vegas-Moving Platforms may be subject to malfunctions and delays inherent in the use of the Internet and electronic communications. You further acknowledge and agree that the Vegas-Moving Platforms may, from time to time, be unavailable (e.g. due to scheduled maintenance or system upgrades) and that Vegas-Moving cannot, and does not, guarantee a specific or minimum availability of the Vegas-Moving Platforms.
6.1 Text Messaging, E-Mails, and Phone Calls
You agree that Vegas-Moving and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective employees, contractors, and agents may contact you at any of the phone numbers or e-mail addresses that you provide, including, but not limited to, by e-mail, text messages, calls, and push notifications. Such communications may also include messages generated by an automatic telephone dialing system. Standard message and data rates may apply. You may opt-out of receiving communications by emailing a request to opt-out to contact@vegas-moving.com. However, opting out of all communications may impact your receipt of the Services.
7 Refusal of Service
You acknowledge and understand that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Vegas-Moving has, and shall at all times retain, the right to refuse or cancel an order for Services at any time for any reason. The circumstances that may warrant a refusal or cancellation of Services, include, but are not limited to, the following circumstances:
*Evictions*
Vegas-Moving may cancel an order for Services if you, or someone else at the location to be serviced, is being, is in the process of being, or has been evicted.
*Prohibited Property*
Vegas-Moving and/or the Third Party Providers may refuse to provide or limit the Services and/or your order may be canceled if it is determined, in Vegas-Moving and/or the Third Party Providers’ sole discretion, that the property you have requested to be moved is prohibited by these Terms, including property explicitly prohibited under Section 8 hereof.
*Dangerous, Hazardous, or Unsanitary Conditions*
If the location where the Services are to be performed is either too dangerous, hazardous, or unsanitary, in Vegas-Moving or the Third Party Providers’ sole discretion, Services may be refused or canceled. For example, your order may be canceled or rescheduled if the location does not meet reasonable cleanliness standards and/or poses a potential health or safety risk (e.g., an unfinished attic, a hoarding scenario, the presence of animal or other human waste products, a flooded or recently flooded location, etc.).
*Inclement Weather*
In cases of inclement weather, you may be required to reschedule and/or delay your order for Services to another time, or the order may be canceled or refused without a cancellation fee. If Services are nonetheless performed despite inclement weather, you will not be eligible for protection under the Damage Protection Policy described in Section 8 (and its subparts) below for any damages incurred as a result of the inclement weather. Inclement weather can include, but is not limited to, heavy rain, snow, sleet, hail, lightning, and high winds.
*Access to property*
Vegas-Moving and/or the Third Party Providers reserve the right to refuse or cancel ordered Services if your property cannot be accessed or is deemed to be, in Vegas-Moving or the Third Party Providers’ sole discretion, too far away from the location of the Third Party Provider’s moving vehicle. For example, Services may be refused or canceled because a driveway is too dangerous to traverse or the Third Party Providers would be required to walk 100 yards or more to move each item of property to a moving vehicle. If Services are nonetheless performed and the Third Party Providers are required to walk a significant distance (in Vegas-Moving’s sole discretion) from the moving vehicle to your personal property, you are advised that you or someone else subject to your direction and control should remain with your personal property at each location to ensure that your personal property is not subject to theft. Personal property lost or stolen because Third Party Providers must travel a significant distance (in Vegas-Moving’s sole discretion) between a moving vehicle and your personal property shall not be covered by the Damage Protection Policy described in Section 8 (and its subparts) below.
*Narrow Doorways, Hallways, or Stairs*
Vegas-Moving and/or the Third Party Providers may refuse to provide or limit the Services if it is determined, in Vegas-Moving and/or the Third Party Providers’ sole discretion, that the property you have requested to be moved cannot be safely moved through a narrow doorway, hallway, or other passageway or cannot be safely moved up or down stairs. In the event that you require such Third Party Providers to continue providing Services after being advised of the danger, you waive any right to receive any reimbursement for damages that may result.
*Insufficient Moving Space*
In the event that your property will not fit into a moving truck, pod, or other service vehicle, the Third Party Providers may refuse to continue loading any additional property until such truck, pod, or other vehicle has been unloaded.
Unless otherwise provided herein, if your order is canceled or rescheduled based on the foregoing Terms or any other Term in this agreement, you will be subject to all applicable cancellation or rescheduling fees.
8 VEGAS-MOVING’S DAMAGE PROTECTION POLICY
Vegas-Moving will agree to provide you with the voluntary damage protection set forth below if you timely file a claim with Vegas-Moving (the “Damage Protection Policy”). Vegas-Moving will not provide you with any other property damage protection other than as set forth below, and by placing an order with Vegas-Moving, you understand and agree that you will not be entitled to recover from Vegas-Moving for any other damages to your property, whether such damages arise in contract, tort, or otherwise. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS CAREFULLY, AS THEY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. If you do not agree to Vegas-Moving’s Damage Protection Policy or are in need of additional protection for your personal or real property, you should not place an order with Vegas-Moving or should obtain additional insurance protection from a third party insurance carrier for your personal or real property prior to the performance of any Services.
Note that you would be no longer eligible for Vegas-Moving's Damage Protection Policy claims if you decide to file a claim with any other coverage/insurance policy that isn’t provided by Vegas-Moving. In other words, Damage Protection Policy provided by Vegas-Moving can’t be used with any other third party policy, that you may choose to obtain. By choosing to pursue a claim under the Damage Protection Policy, you hereby waive and release Vegas-Moving and/or the Third Party Providers from any and all liability for damages that you have sustained as a result of their performance of the Services and agree that the maximum liability for any damages to your personal or real property shall be as set forth herein.
In addition, in order to access and use the Vegas-Moving Platforms, you agree that Vegas-Moving and Third Party Provider shall not be liable to you for any damages in excess of the damages to which you would be entitled under the Damage Protection Policy below, unless otherwise provided herein or set forth in a separate written agreement between you and Vegas-Moving. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that Vegas-Moving and the Third Party Providers are intended beneficiaries of the provisions of Section 8 (and each of its subparts 8.1 through 8.5) of these Terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Recovery Rate (defined below) and the $2,000 limitation on liability (described below) shall not apply to a claim by you against a Driver (defined below) for damages caused to your personal property as a result of a motor vehicle accident, provided that such damages shall not exceed the limits of any applicable cargo or contingent cargo insurance policy. Such limitations shall, however, apply to any such claim by you against Vegas-Moving, or its subsidiaries, affiliates, Third Party Providers.
8.1 Damages To Personal Property
If Vegas-Moving or a Third Party Provider arranged by Vegas-Moving to provide you with loading, unloading, or other non-transportation help Services (a “Lumper” and the “Lumper Services”) damages or loses your personal property while moving your personal property, including, while loading or unloading your personal property in a transportation vehicle provided by you, another company, or a Third Party Provider that is not arranged by Vegas-Moving to provide you with transportation Services (a “Driver”), or if (and only if) your order includes both lumper and transportation Services and your personal property is damaged in transit (i.e., during shipment) as a result of the negligent packing of your personal property in a transportation vehicle by a Lumper or by the negligent driving of the Driver, Vegas-Moving will assume liability for your damaged personal property items at a rate of sixty cents per pound ($.60/lb.) per item damaged (the “Recovery Rate”); provided, however, that **Vegas-Moving’s maximum liability per shipment or order shall not exceed $2,000**. For the avoidance of doubt, Vegas-Moving will not assume any liability for any damages that occur in transit if you have ordered only Lumper Services and not additional transportation Services, or if you have ordered only transportation services. (In other words, Vegas-Moving will not assume any liability for any damages that occur in transit if you have not ordered Driver (vehicle use) and Movers but only Movers help or only a Driver.) In addition, if you have ordered only Lumper Services (i.e., Hourly Labor), Vegas-moving’s maximum liability for such order shall be reduced and shall not exceed $1,000 per order.
For purposes of determining the weight of a particular item that qualifies for protection under the Damage Protection Policy, each shipping piece or package and the contents thereof shall constitute one item. In addition, the component parts of any single item disassembled for the purposes of handling, loading, and/or transporting such item shall constitute one item.
By receiving and accepting the Services, you expressly acknowledge and understand that you shall not be entitled to any other damages to your personal property, whether to high priced items, items of sentimental value, or otherwise, other than as set forth herein or in a separate signed writing between you and Vegas-Moving and a Third Party Provider, regardless of whether such damages are negligently or intentionally caused by any Lumper or Driver (if applicable).
8.2 Damages To Real and Certain Other Related Property
If Vegas-Moving or a Third Party Provider (whether a Lumper or Driver) causes damage to your real property while performing the Services and you timely file a claim for damages, Vegas-Moving will only assume the following liability for damages, provided that all your damages, whether to real or personal property shall be subject to the maximum total per order limitations described above ($1,000 for Movers Only Help / Lumper Services and $2,000 for Truck and Movers / Transportation and Lumper Services):
*Damages to Floors*
In the event that floors are damaged, you agree that Vegas-Moving or Third Party Providers should not be held liable for such damages, although Vegas-Moving might offer a free or a low-cost repair or replace the local area damaged. In such case, Vegas-Moving will not resurface or refinish the entire floor and does not guarantee an exact match with any original pre-Services finish. In addition, Vegas-Moving will only offer the reasonable market rate, in its sole discretion, for repair of the local area damaged.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Vegas-Moving will not pay for any minor nicks or scratches or dents to wood flooring that, in Vegas-Moving’s sole discretion, may be expected as part of completion of the Services. You should cover your flooring with protective materials, including, but not limited to, ram board or other floor protection rolls, doormats, cardboard, rugs, or runners, prior to receiving any Services. You should also ensure that any furniture that you need moved is placed on sliders or that sliders are made available to the Lumpers.
*Damages to Handrails, Walls, Doors, and Drywall*
Vegas-Moving will not be liable for what Vegas-Moving, in its sole discretion, determines are minor nicks, scratches, or scuffs to the real property, including, but not limited to, any paint damage, that you may incur as a result of the Lumpers’ performance of the Services. Vegas-Moving may, but shall not be required to, assume liability for what Vegas-Moving determines, in its sole discretion, constitutes significant damage to handrails, walls, doors, and/or drywall. In such case, Vegas-Moving will, at its option, either (i) repair the damage to the extent necessary to restore it to the same condition in which it existed prior to your receipt of the Services or (ii) pay you for the cost of such repairs based on a reasonable market rate for such services, as determined by Vegas-Moving in its sole discretion.
*Damages to Mailboxes*
If a Vegas-Moving or a Third Party Provider damages your mailbox while performing the Services, Vegas-Moving will offer to, at its option, either (i) repair the damage to the extent necessary to restore it to the same condition in which it existed prior to your receipt of the Services, (ii) pay you for the cost of such repairs based on a reasonable market rate for such services, as determined by Vegas-Moving in its sole discretion, (iii) replace the damaged mailbox with one of like kind and quality, or (iv) pay you for the cost of a replacement.
** Vegas-Moving will not be liable for any other damages to your real property, including, but not limited to, for any damages to lawns, landscaping, sprinklers, sidewalks, or driveways (including, without limitation, any cosmetic damage to driveways or other concrete or paved areas).** You should not allow any transportation or other vehicles to park on your driveway or sidewalks if they are not capable of supporting such vehicles or if you are concerned that they may damage your driveway, sidewalks, or lawn. You should notify Vegas-Moving prior to provider arriving to perform the Services so that they may make arrangements to park on a street or other designated area.
8.3 Filing Claims For Damages
If you have sustained damages to your personal or real property as a result of your receipt of the Services from Vegas-Moving and/or a Third Party Provider, you must file a claim for damages within five (5) business days after you receive the Services at issue, unless a longer period (“**Extended Claim Period**”) is provided in a separate, written agreement between you and a Vegas-Moving or as set forth in Appendix A below (if applicable). Your claim for damages must be filed within the five (5) day claim period or the Extended Claim Period, if applicable, (the “**Claim Limitations Period**”) regardless of any other dispute that you may have. Claims may only be filed by the individual that booked the order for Services or the owner of the personal or real property damaged by the Third Party Providers. Failure to timely file a claim within the Claim Limitations Period may result in an absolute bar to any claim that you have against Vegas-Moving or its subsidiaries or affiliates for damages to your personal or real property, regardless of whether such damages arise in contract, tort, or under any other legal theory.
To file a claim for damages under Vegas-Moving’s Damage Protection Policy, you must contact the Vegas-Moving Team. You may contact the Vegas-Moving Team by submitting a request to contact@vegas-moving.com or by requesting to speak with the Vegas-Moving Team at 725-222-0005. The Vegas-Moving Team will provide you with a damage claim form that you must complete and submit with all relevant documentation within the Claim Limitations Period.
When filing a claim, you will be required to submit all relevant documentation. Relevant documentation includes, but is not limited to, a description of the damaged property, the nature of the damages, the weight of the item(s), and any pictures evidencing your damages. To ensure quick handling of claims, you should provide: (1) the confirmation number for your move; (2) the date of your move; (3) delivery receipts, noting damage or exceptions to the move or confirmation of non-delivery; (4) documentation of the amount of damage being claimed; and (5) photos of the damage. Your damage claim is not considered filed until you have submitted a completed damage request with Vegas-Moving. When submitting a claim to Vegas-Moving’s Team, all claims for damages must be included in the original claim. Additional claims for damages based on the same order for Services that are submitted after the original claim has been filed will not be accepted and shall be deemed waived.
Once your claim has been filed, you agree to cooperate with Vegas-Moving in the investigation of your claim (e.g., by submitting documentary and other evidence requested by Vegas-Moving, including, without limitation, additional pictures). If you fail to cooperate with Vegas-Moving while it is assessing the claim or if your claim is not resolved within thirty (30) days due to some action or inaction on your part, Vegas-Moving may, in its sole discretion, deny your claim in its entirety, and you agree that neither Vegas-Moving nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates will be liable for any damages to your property.
After your claim and any evidence submitted by you in support of your claim has been reviewed, you may receive a claim settlement offer. You must accept or reject the settlement offer within thirty (30) days of the date that you receive the offer (unless a shorter period is stated in the offer). Your claim should be resolved within thirty (30) days of your receipt of the Services at issue. If you do not respond to a settlement offer after receipt and within such thirty (30) day window, your claim will be denied in its entirety, and you will not be entitled to any damages under the Damage Protection Policy.
8.4 Specific Exclusions From The Damage Protection Policy; Additional Limitations of Liability
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including the foregoing discussion of the Damage Protection Policy, Vegas-Moving and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of the foregoing entities’ employees, contractors, and agents, shall not be liable for any of the following damages or claims:
*Pre-Existing Damages*
You are required to disclose any pre-existing damages to Vegas-Moving prior to your move.

*Minor Damages*
Vegas-Moving will not pay any damages for minor dents or small nicks or scratches caused by Vegas-Moving or a Third Party Provider (or any agent thereof) to your property as a result of your receipt of the Services.

*Certain Electronics and Appliances*
Vegas-Moving will not be liable for electronics or appliances that fail to operate after being shipped and/or reconnected.

In addition, Vegas-Moving will not be liable for any structural plumbing, electrical systems, or water damage associated with electronics or appliances that are handled by a Lumper. Third Party Providers should require all appliances to be disconnected, uninstalled, and drained (if necessary) by you prior to moving such items.

You acknowledge and agree that, without submission of a documented inventory prior to the service date, and without documentation of items being moved on move day, there is no way to verify whether any item has been lost or stolen.
*Reassembled Items*
If you request reassembly of any of your personal property by any Laborer or other Third Party Provider, Vegas-Moving will not be liable for any damages that may arise as a result of the assembly, attempted assembly, or failed assembly of such items, including, but not limited to, items containing particleboard, chip-core, or pressboard.

You should hold Vegas-Moving and its subsidiaries and affiliates harmless from any expenses, losses, costs, (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs), judgments, settlements, damages, awards, interests, fines, and liabilities of whatever kind, including as imposed by a court of law or by any governmental body or agency, that Vegas-Moving and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates may incur as a result of, arising out of, or in relation to your decision to request such services from Vegas-Moving and/or Third Party Providers.

.
*Evictions*
Although Vegas-Moving and Third Party Providers retain the right to cancel, and may refuse to complete, an order for Services in the event that you or someone else at the location to be serviced is being evicted, in the event that an order for Services is nonetheless completed, you will not be eligible for any protection under the Damage Protection Policy and agree to indemnify, defend, and hold Vegas-Moving and its subsidiaries and affiliates harmless from and against any and all expenses, losses, costs, (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs), judgments, settlements, damages, awards, interests, fines, and liabilities of whatever kind that Third Party Providers and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates may incur as a result of, arising out of, or in relation to your or someone else’s eviction.
