We recently moved from a rental house in the Seattle area where we

pay for service we will not be using. Has anyone had any
experience terminating such a contract early, particularly with
Protection One?

I have no such experience; however, I know that similar contracts -
those calling for a service to be rendered in the future - have not
been upheld when the service cannot be provided for any
reason...you dying, you moving...

My understanding has been those have been for service, not
cancellation charges.

Yes. OP said,

See?

To OP: my best advice is to tell them to go take a flying one.
