BROAD CARGO COVERAGE
INSURES FREIGHT + CARGO YOU HAUL
Cargo insurance, sometimes referred to as freight or inland marine insurance, provides financial protection for motor carriers that haul freight and commodities on behalf of their clients.
Cargo insurance provides coverage for damage to freight and cargo by fire and collision, as well as other perils you face while on the road, such as hitting, running over, or striking your load.
It activates when covered cargo is damaged or lost while you are transporting it under a bill of lading or shipping receipt. It also insures cargo when it is being loaded, transported, and unloaded, and while you’re at a terminal or dock waiting for the recipient to sign for it.
