The Insurance Process
Exclusive: The customer’s container is weighed at the port, and the final weight is listed on the Bill of Lading (BL). If the weight exceeds the minimum listed for the insurance, the customer will be informed. For full insurance coverage, the amount insured should be at least $ 6 per pound. Insurance must be purchased within 24 hours of loading the move onto the container.Door-to-Door: All-risk insurance is offered and recommended for customers to be fully covered. In this case, Fastway will do all packing and unpacking, and the customer can insure all items in the move. The customer is responsible for providing Fastway with a detailed list of all insured items and their respective costs.
To give our customers a better idea of how much insurance will cost, we conducted a study of average weights and prepared the following list:
20’ CT SD – Minimum $50,000
40’ CT SD – Minimum $70,000
40’ CT High – Minimum $100,000
Deductible in the event of damage: $500.00Port-to-Door / Port-to-Port: Whenever the customer packs and loads the move, the only insurance available is “total loss”, which only covers a total loss of the move.
The minimum insurance according to the rules is still the same: $6/lb
