As a Freight Forwarders, we understand first hand the lack of cargo insurance coverage being provided by vessel and carriers and the need for full value based cargo insurance to protect your shipment. That’s why, we established our very own cargo insurance division and are offering primary cargo insurance coverage based on the actual full replacement value of your goods, not based on their weight (ie: 0.50 cents per lb.)
We want you to have peace of mind in knowing that your shipment is properly protected by a top rated cargo insurer with the broadest coverage options, highest financial ratings, and claims payment stability. We are proud to offer you Primary Cargo Insurance from “A” rated insurers, who specialize in this unique type of cargo insurance.
We provide “Primary” Cargo Insurance Coverage for all types of shipments worldwide, not the limited “Contingent” cargo insurance offered by carriers;
Did you know that when you move your goods by Air, Ocean or Land with any shipping carrier and damage or loss occurs, the “contingent” cargo insurance they offer Blueline Forwarding Logistics pay you only:
● $0.05 per pound, for goods shipped by Land,
● A Total of $500, for goods shipped by Ocean and
● Up to $20 per kilogram, for goods shipped by Air.
That’s not much and by law that’s all they are required to pay you, because contingent cargo insurance is entirely dependent upon the carriers legal liability and their terms and conditions (tariffs).
You can purchase a higher value cargo insurance coverage with some carriers, but at very high rates and the coverage is still limited by their liability and tariffs and based on the item weight. They do not cover high risk items such as: Household goods, fragile goods, artwork, electronics, jewelry or high valued items.
With cargo insurance, you risk being paid very little for your loss. Wouldn’t you rather be fully protected?
Here’s where we can help:
Primary cargo insurance repays you for Actual losses. You can get coverage for the actual full dollar value of your shipment, not based on the weight. You can insure: Almost all items, even high risk, shipping to or from any country (except Iraq, Afghanistan, North Korea or Cuba), with any carrier, by all modes of transport: Land, Ocean and Air.
And, unlike contingent coverage, it’s primary in the event of a loss. This means, it’s your main coverage and comes first regardless of the carriers liability or their terms and conditions. You can get peace of mind and not worry about your shipments with primary cargo insurance.
