When you insure your car for transport, it means that you will not cover any expenses in case of damage while it is in transit. You will also get financial cover for any injuries that other drivers or pedestrians may suffer in the process. Additionally, should your car be stolen when it is being transported, you will get financial support to replace it. The same will happen if it is destroyed by a fire.
Generally, car insurance for transport comes with security. Even as you hand it to the auto transport company, you know that you will not bear any burdens if something terrible happens to it. The terms and costs of the insurance policy will depend on the company that you go to.
Most car insurance firms will provide either liability or cargo insurance. It should take care of any damages that occur while the shipping company is transporting your vehicle. Even with the insurance, you should remove any valuables inside your car before handing the keys to the driver at the auto transport firm. This is because the insurance cover is for the vehicle alone; and not anything in it. Should you lose any of your items, you should not go to the insurance company for any financial aid.
Damages during car transportation are rare. However, if they happen, you should be able to file a claim to help you bear the financial burden at hand. You will need to do a lot of detailed documentation when filing a claim. You will also need to show the car’s condition before and after transport. That is why you should always inspect the car before the auto shipping company does it. You should also take clear photos of it.
Make sure that you contact the shipping company when you notice the damage done to the vehicle after it has arrived at the intended destination. They should fix the problem within the shortest time possible. If they don’t, you can file a claim against them via Better Business Bureau.
