Transit Insurance
Insurance cover for your goods and vehicles during the move, arranged through insurance companies, with help from our team for any claim.
- Insured transit insurance available
Even with the best packing and the most careful team, a long journey carries some risks that no mover can fully control: road accidents caused by others, fire, floods or heavy rain. Transit insurance protects the value of your goods against these risks, so a rare accident does not become a major financial loss.
We arrange transit insurance for household goods, office items, cars and bikes on local and intercity moves. The insurance is issued by an insurance company, and our team helps you through the whole process, from declaring the value to filing a claim if it is ever needed.
What transit insurance covers
The exact cover depends on the policy chosen, but transit insurance typically protects against:
- Damage or loss caused by road accidents involving the vehicle carrying your goods.
- Fire during transit.
- Natural events such as floods, storms and landslides.
- Theft of the entire consignment.
Some policies also cover damage during loading and unloading. Our team will explain what is included and excluded in the policy before you decide.
How the insurance process works
- Declare the value: you prepare a list of goods with their current value. For high-value items like electronics or furniture, you may need to give approximate purchase values.
- Premium: the premium is a percentage of the declared value, which we share in the quote.
- Policy: the policy is issued before the goods leave your home, and you receive a copy.
- Delivery check: at delivery, you check the goods against the packing list and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Claim: if there is damage covered by the policy, we help you file the claim with photos and documents within the required time.
When transit insurance is most useful
- Intercity moves, where goods spend days on highways.
- Moves that include expensive electronics, furniture or artwork.
- Car and bike transport.
- Moves during the monsoon, when weather risks are higher.
- Office moves with costly equipment.
Declaring the right value
The claim amount depends on the value you declare. If you declare a very low value to save on premium, the claim settlement will also be low. We recommend declaring the realistic current value of your goods. Our team can help you prepare the list.
Items that are usually not covered
Cash, jewellery, important documents, and items packed by the customer are generally not covered by transit insurance. Mechanical or electrical faults without any external damage are also usually excluded. Please carry valuables and important documents with you.
Insurance for local moves and storage
Transit insurance is not only for long journeys. For local moves within Surat, insurance can be useful if you are moving expensive furniture, electronics or artwork. For goods kept in our storage facility, separate storage insurance can be arranged for the storage period. Our team will tell you which option suits your move.
