We know that many of our customers are concerned about the cost and need for taking out insurance protection for their international move to Australia. We consider this a necessity rather than a ‘nice to have’ The reason marine insurance seems expensive is because of the risks, not because we’re careless or excessively profiting from your premium.
These risks include damage due to extreme weather events, container movement during transit, container handling or vehicle accidents and other unforeseen circumstances leading to loss. It is a one-off cost, and not a recurring cost like your health, income, property, and motor vehicle insurance costs.
At the end of the day, we recommend you take out insurance because we want to sleep well at night, knowing that your personal effects are fully protected.
