Although our agents work very hard to ensure your belongings arrive safely, we would like to bring to your attention the Warsaw convention, which governs and may limit the liability of the carriers in the event of loss and/or damage. In most cases, the real value of your goods are not covered by the carriers liability. We recommend you take advantage of the excellent insurance coverage we have available through a maritime consortium insurance group.

Once a reservation for your move has been made, you must decide on a dollar amount to insure the value of your contents. Our representative will issue an insurance certificate from our maritime insurance group. The agent will then remit the insurance certificate to you before the departure of your goods. In the unfortunate event that an accident occurs, you will have the coverage and necessary documentation ready to settle the claim directly with the insurance group.

The following types of coverage are available. They all provide coverage in the event of fire, water damage and/or theft but our "fragile item" policies also cover breakables such as china and glassware.

Insurance A: All risks but excluding breakages, premium 2.5% of destination replacement value.

Insurance B: All risks professionally packed only, including breakage, premium 3.5% of destination replacement value.

The minimum value to insure for a 20ft. container is $20,000
The minimum value to insure for a 40ft. container is $30,000
