A Certificate of Insurance (COI) is a crucial document that moving companies provide to verify their insurance coverage. This document is crucial for moving in or out of most apartment buildings. Building management typically requires it before movers can enter.
The COI protects the building during the move by covering potential damages. It ensures that the moving company has sufficient insurance.
Here's how it works:
If your building management requires a COI, they will typically request that you or your moving company submit one. At Avant-Garde Moving, we include the COI in our rates. All you need to do is provide us with a sample or the specific COI requirements from your building management, and we'll take care of the rest. This ensures a smooth moving process and helps prevent any delays or complications with your building's management.

Moving a Peloton bike requires careful preparation and handling to ensure it remains in good condition throughout the process.
Before starting the disassembly, gather the necessary tools and materials. You'll need Allen wrenches, screwdrivers, and a container to store small parts like screws. Begin by powering down the bike and carefully detaching the touchscreen. Handle the touchscreen with care, as it is a sensitive component.
Start by removing the pedals using the appropriate tools. Be sure to label each pedal to ensure easy reassembly. Next, detach the seat and handlebars, securing them to prevent movement during transport. Handle the frame carefully to avoid any damage or injury.
Once the bike is disassembled, pack each part securely. Use blankets or bubble wrap to protect the components from damage. When transporting, make sure the bike is secured to prevent any movement. Choose a vehicle that can safely accommodate the bike and its parts.
After reaching your destination, reassemble the bike by placing the frame in the desired location. Reattach the seat and handlebars, adjusting them to your original settings. Next, carefully reattach the touchscreen and ensure it functions properly. Finally, reattach the pedals, taking care to avoid cross-threading.
Once reassembled, perform a thorough safety check. Ensure all parts are secure and the bike is stable before using it again.
