What's Your Business?
Which Insurance?
Insurance for the Transport Industry
Your Business
You may be an owner-driver or run hundreds of trucks; you operate locally, nationally or internationally. Your business involves moving goods from a factory or warehouse to their destination. You'll use a method of transport that ensures the products reach their customers on time and intact. You may be responsible for the logistics of moving goods hundreds or even thousands of miles, by air, sea, road or rail.
Why Transport Insurance?
When goods are in transit, they are exposed to the everyday risks during handling, storing, loading - even carrying to the transport itself. Insuring those consignments against loss, damage or delay is essential.
You may use the service of a freight forwarder or a logistics company, but most people in the supply chain who facilitate the movement of goods operate under conditions limiting their liability in cases of loss, damage or delay.
If they have only limited liability insurance, it may not be adequate to ensure your products are protected if something were to happen.
What does it Cost?
The cost of your insurance will depend on the type and value of the goods in transit (so it's important to accurately calculate their value), the means of transport you're using, your trade patterns, and whether the journey is domestic or international.
