Claim Example for Laundromats

General Liability: A customer of a laundromat was transferring their clothes from a washing machine to a dryer. The customer did not realize a water puddle had formed in front of another washing machine. The customer slipped and fell and broke his arm. A $5,000 medical expense was immediately paid to compensate the customer for their hospital visit and ambulance ride.

Automatic Business owners coverages: The laundromat installed a bright neon sign above the front door in order to attract new business. During a heavy windstorm, the sign cracked, and a portion of it fell to the ground smashing into pieces.

​

Value Plus: An employee of the laundromat was going through tough financial times. They ‘forgot’ to turn on the alarm system when closing up for the night. No signs of break-in were evident. The store owner noticed sales figures were repeatedly lower when this employee closed the store for the night. Cash in the machines also was mysteriously low on these same nights. The insured notified the police, and also made an employee dishonesty claim, and a money and securities claim.

​

Equipment Breakdown: The piping within the hot water heater ruptured from over usage, causing the laundromat to have to shut down for 4 hours. An equipment breakdown claim was made.
