CAR SHIPPING INSURANCE IN A NUTSHELL
You need your car to be protected at all times, but it becomes a matter of high priority when you have plans of shipping it. Here are some basic aspects to keep in mind when moving your vehicle:
TEMPORARY OR DEFINITE MOVE
The general terms of the insurance coverage may vary, depending on whether this is going to be one-time shipping or you are moving to a new area. If you are planning to live somewhere else, it is advisable to know ahead how this will affect your insurance policy, as Insurance terms change from state to state. Things to find out:
- ¿Will you be able to stay with the same insurance company?
- ¿Will you need new coverage for your car?
- ¿Will you require a new policy?
- ¿How will that affect your finances?
CAR SHIPPING INSURANCE
In case your policy does not cover car shipping accidents, you probably want to get temporary protection during the transportation process. Cars or vehicles with special requirements, such as collector cars, classic or luxury cars, low ground clearance vehicles (lower than 4 inches), and automobiles with custom or delicate paint jobs should be covered with extra insurance protection
YOUR INSURANCE POLICY
You must be fully aware of your insurance coverage specifics; go over the terms of your policy, to know your risks and liabilities. Find out if your car is protected when it´s on the road; If not, you should contact your insurance broker and ask for wider coverage, be it temporary or permanent. There are many affordable options, depending on the kind of coverage you choose.
OUR INSURANCE POLICY
Every driver we dispatch has insurance on file covering at least $100.000 per vehicle, liable only for acts of negligence, not for unforeseeable acts of nature.
HOW IT WORKS
One of the most important steps of the shipping process is the graphic and written testimony, proof of the car´s condition, all of which is stated on the Bill of Lading, a vital document that contains all the relevant information; this document and pictures taken during the first and second inspections (pickup and delivery) are essential in case of claim compensation to the insurance for damage or loss.
