Transit review

Establish where your risk begins and ends

Incoterms

Terms of sale decide whether you or the counterparty carries the risk at each point of the journey.

Route and mode

Sea, air, road, and rail, and whether the journey is domestic or international, all change the review.

What you ship

Commodity type, packaging, and value affect both appetite and the conditions applied.

Covers commonly discussed

Journeys, storage, and the gaps between

Cargo cover generally follows the goods across the journey, and the common failures sit at the handover points rather than in transit itself.

Goods in transit

Addresses loss or damage to goods while being carried, subject to the policy terms and conditions.

Storage in transit

Temporary storage at ports, depots, and warehouses is a frequent gap in narrow wordings.

Single or annual

Cover can be arranged per shipment or as an annual arrangement, depending on how often you ship.

Common questions

Questions worth asking before you decide.

Use the first conversation to clarify documents, timing, fees where relevant, and the policy terms that need checking before advice, quote, renewal, or claims-support steps.

Is my freight covered by the carrier?

Carrier liability is generally limited and is not the same as insuring the goods. Many businesses find the carrier's liability far below the value of what was being carried.

What are incoterms and why do they matter?

They are standard terms of sale that set where risk passes between buyer and seller. They decide whether a loss is yours to claim, which is why they are established first.

Do I need cover for goods sitting at a port?

Storage during a journey is addressed by some wordings and excluded by others. Because delays at ports are common, it is worth confirming.
