Information Collection Activities;
Household Movers’ Disclosure
Requirements
30-day notice and request for
comments.

ACTION:

As part of its continuing effort
to reduce paperwork burdens, and as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501–3519 (PRA),
the Surface Transportation Board
(Board) gives notice that it is requesting
from the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval of the
information collection—Household
Movers’ Disclosure Requirements—
further described below and detailed in
the appendices. The Board previously
published a notice about this collection
on August 10, 2012, at 77 Fed. Reg.
47918. That notice allowed for a 60-day
public review and comment period. No
comments were received.
Comments may now be submitted to
OMB concerning (1) whether this
collection of information is necessary

functions of the Board, including
whether the collection has practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of the Board’s
burden estimates; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (4) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, when
appropriate.
Written comments are due on
April 25, 2013.

In this notice the Board is
requesting comments on the following
information collection:
Title: Household Movers’ Disclosure
Requirements.
OMB Control Number: 2140–XXXX.
STB Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Existing collections
in use without an OMB control number.
Respondents: Household goods
movers that desire to offer a rate
limiting their liability on interstate
moves to anything less than
replacement value of the goods.
Number of Respondents: 4,500
(approximate number of motor carriers
and freight forwarders involved in
authorized for-hire household goods
carriage in the United States according
to the American Moving and Storage
Association.
Frequency: One time (Movers need
only modify the standard documents
that they already distribute.).
Total Burden Hours (annually
including all respondents): We estimate
that 15 of the approximately 4,500
household-goods movers are large firms
that print their own forms and that it
will take each of these large firms no
more than 24 hours to produce the
modified forms, resulting in a total startup burden of 360 hours (24 × 15).
Annualized over the three years covered
by OMB’s approval, this results in an

18422

annual burden of 120 hours. The
household-goods carrier already knows
its released rate. It is merely adding that
rate to a document that it already
distributes to the customer.
Total ‘‘Non-hour Burden’’ Cost: There
will be a startup cost to the remaining
approximately 4485 movers/freight
forwarders that are small companies
that will use the services of a
professional printer to replace their
existing stock of outdated forms
(estimated at 500 copies). This cost is
expected to be $460 per mover, based on
information supplied by the American
Moving & Storage Association.
Therefore, the total non-hour burden
cost is estimated at a one-time expense
of $2,063,100. Annualized over the
three years covered by OMB’s approval,
this results in an annual burden of
$687,700.
Needs and Uses: Moving companies
must inform consumers of their rights
and obtain a signed waiver if the
consumer elects anything other than
full-value protection. See Released
Rates of Motor Common Carriers of
Household Goods, RR 999 (Amendment
No. 5) (STB served March 9, 2012);
Appendices I–IV in this notice.
Previously, consumers were sometimes
confused and did not realize that they
had waived full value protection until
after they had experienced damage to or
loss of their goods. The information
collection that is the subject of this
notice is intended to correct this
problem by providing early notice
regarding the two liability options (fullvalue protection and the lower releasedrate protection), as well as adequate
time and information to help consumers
decide which option to choose.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Under the PRA, a Federal agency
conducting or sponsoring a collection of
information must display a currently
valid OMB control number. A collection
of information, which is defined in 44
U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c),
includes agency requirements that
persons submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to the agency, third
parties, or the public. Section 3507(b) of
the PRA requires, concurrent with an
agency’s submitting a collection to OMB
for approval, a 30-day notice and
comment period through publication in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information.

Appendix 1
NOTICE REQUIRED ON ESTIMATE FORM/
COMPUTER SCREEN
The following notice shall be placed in a
prominent place, in at least 12-point type, on
a moving company’s required written
estimate (if printed). If the estimate is
provided electronically, this statement must
be of a size that, when printed on 8 by 12
inch paper, equates to 12-point type.
WARNING: If a moving company loses or
damages your goods, there are 2 different
standards for the company’s liability based
on the types of rates you pay. BY FEDERAL
LAW, THIS FORM MUST CONTAIN A
FILLED-IN ESTIMATE OF THE COST OF A
MOVE FOR WHICH THE MOVING
COMPANY IS LIABLE FOR THE FULL
(REPLACEMENT) VALUE OF YOUR GOODS
in the event of loss of, or damage to, the
goods. This form may also contain an
estimate of the cost of a move in which the
moving company is liable for FAR LESS than
the replacement value of your goods,
typically at a lower cost to you. You will
select the liability level later, on the bill of
lading (contract) for your move. Before
selecting a liability level, please read ‘‘Your
Rights and Responsibilities When You
Move,’’ provided by the moving company,
and seek further information at the
government website
www.protectyourmove.gov.

Appendix 2
VALUTION STATEMENT REQUIRED ON
BILL OF LADING
The following notice shall be placed in a
prominent place, in at least 10-point type, on
a moving company’s required bill of lading
(if printed). If the bill of lading is provided
electronically, this statement must be of a
size that, when printed on 8 by 12 inch
paper, equates to 10-point type.
REQUIRED VALUATION CLAUSE AND
ESTIMATE OF COST OF SHIPMENT AT
FULL-VALUE PROTECTION
THE CONSUMER MUST SELECT ONE OF
THESE OPTIONS FOR THE CARRIER’S
LIABILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE TO
YOUR HOUSEHOLD GOODS
CUSTOMER’S DECLARATION OF VALUE
THIS IS A STATEMENT OF THE LEVEL OF
CARRIER LIABILITY—IT IS NOT
INSURANCE
Option 1:
The Cost Estimate that you receive from
your mover MUST INCLUDE Full
(Replacement) Value Protection for the
articles that are included in your shipment.
If you wish to waive the Full (Replacement)
Value level of protection, you must complete
the WAIVER of Full (Replacement) Value
Protection shown below.
Full (Replacement) Value Protection is the
most comprehensive plan available for
protection of your goods. If any article is lost,
destroyed, or damaged while in your mover’s

PO 00000

Frm 00118

Fmt 4703

custody, your mover will, at its option,
either: 1) repair the article to the extent
necessary to restore it to the same condition
as when it was received by your mover, or
pay you for the cost of such repairs; or 2)
replace the article with an article of like kind
and quality, or pay you for the cost of such
a replacement. Under Full (Replacement)
Value Protection, if you do not declare a
higher replacement value on this form prior
to the time of shipment, the value of your
goods will be deemed to be equal to $6.00
multiplied by the weight (in pounds) of the
shipment, subject to a minimum valuation
for the shipment of $6,000. Under this
option, the cost of your move will be
composed of a base rate plus an added cost
reflecting the cost of providing this full value
cargo liability protection for your shipment.
If you wish to declare a higher value for
your shipment than these default amounts,
you must indicate that value here. Declaring
a higher value may increase the valuation
charge in your cost estimate.

Full (Replacement) Value Protection:

I acknowledge that for my shipment I have:

of protection included in this estimate of
charges and declared a higher Total Value of
my shipment (if appropriate); and 2) received
a copy of the ‘‘Your Rights and
Responsibilities When You Move’’ brochure
explaining these provisions.

Option 2:
WAIVER of Full (Replacement) Value
Protection. This lower level of protection is
provided at no additional cost beyond the
base rate; however, it provides only minimal
protection that is considerably less than the
average value of household goods. Under this
option, a claim for any article that may be
lost, destroyed, or damaged while in your
mover’s custody will be settled based on the
weight of the individual article multiplied by
60 cents. For example, the settlement for an
audio component valued at $1,000 that
weighs 10 pounds would be $6.00 (10
pounds times 60 cents).
