Why do I need this? Isn't it the courier or transport company's responsibility?
Be careful not to assume your goods are automatically covered during transit. Couriers or transporters aren’t obligated to cover goods on a delivery. Sometimes they may offer limited protection or a warranty - but what they cover varies.
They may
- Be limited to a few defined events only
- Exclude damage if goods are accidentally dropped whilst being unloaded
- Have trading terms which specifically exclude damage cover during transit
- Cover a low dollar value

- Have difficult and lengthy claims processes
