GRONE offers a full package of services for international “door-to-door” cargo transportation, including cargo insurance during transportation.
Cargo insurance is a key element of international cargo transportation, regardless of the direction. Each cargo represents a material value, and the process of its transportation carries a direct risk of its loss or damage, in addition to various force majeure situations and natural disasters.
There are no mandatory requirements for insurance of shipped goods in Russia, but the popularity of this service is constantly growing. You can insure the cargo directly in the insurance company, or contact a proven and reliable transport and logistics company.
GRONE insures cargo for the entire transit time receiving it from the client to unloading at the consignee’s warehouse, choosing the best insurance option for international transportation.
There are two main types of insurance applicable in international transportation and minimizing the financial losses of the cargo owner upon the occurrence of an insured event – cargo insurance and carrier liability insurance.
Types of insurance for international cargo transportation
-
Cargo insurance. It serves to protect the material interests of the cargo owner in case of loss or damage to the goods.
-
Carrier liability insurance. Allows to receive financial compensation for the cargo damaged by the fault of the carrier.
GRONE works only with reliable insurance companies and provides the customers with assistance in both cargo insurance and carrier liability insurance.
Cost of insurance
The cost of cargo insurance for international transportation is calculated individually and depends on the type of vehicle, packaging, route, and the nature of the cargo itself.
The interest rates for each mode of transport may vary. This is due to the varying degree of insurance risks. Air freight is recognized as the safest type of cargo transportation — the probability of damage or loss of cargo during air transportation is minimal. The least safe way of transportation is road transport. The insurance rate for this method of transportation may be increased.
GRONE not only organizes international cargo transportation in any direction, but also offers customers an additional insurance service at very favorable rates.
