How Auto Shipping Insurance Works When Transporting a Valuable Vehicle

Why is auto shipping insurance necessary? If you have a valuable vehicle that needs to be transported, naturally, you want to make sure insurance is in order and you are properly protected in the unlikely event that something happens.

Your auto transporter’s insurance takes precedence over your insurance coverage. Any damage that is done to your car during the transport process should be taken care of by the transport company’s insurance. Federal law requires auto transporters to have a minimum of $750,000 public liability insurance in addition to the cargo insurance, which might vary depending on the vehicles that are being transported. It is not unusual for the transport company to have $1 million coverage for cargo.

So, if you are shipping your rare vehicle, an exotic sports car or a restored antique, just make sure your transporter is insured, and then you don’t have to worry. If something does happen, there is insurance coverage in place to handle any repairs your vehicle might need.
