What you should know about car shipping insurance

While shipping your car, there are multiple ways to obtain adequate coverage, including the possibility of purchasing additional protection on your own. At one end, you can obtain coverage through your car shipping company’s provider. Call your shipper well in advance to find out what kind of insurance they carry and how it would cover you if your car were to be damaged or lost during the shipping process. Many auto shipping companies carry some form of liability insurance to hedge against accidents and damages. As far as possible, try to extract details about their coverage in writing. Read the fine print and understand how and to what extent you will be covered and reimbursed.

If you carry auto insurance on your own, check with your insurance provider whether your vehicle will be covered during the shipping process. If they do not provide adequate protection consider purchasing more coverage so that between the shipper’s insurance and your own, you will be fully covered.

Some insurance companies may require you to notify them a few weeks in advance of the actual shipping date. It is always a good idea to comply with these policies to avoid future headaches.
Some precautions you should take
Take pictures before and after your car is shipped. Even if your vehicle is fully covered by insurance, it is always a good idea to maintain evidence and before and after pictures should you need to claim damages at a later date. Carefully inspect the vehicle and report and document your observations thoroughly.

It is also a good idea to prepare your car before the shipping date. Ask your car shipping company to provide detailed instructions about how you should prepare your car for shipping. Follow these and additional precautions and safeguards to the T. This will make your case even stronger should some damage or accident occur.
