Protect Your Cargo with Tailored Freight Insurance Solutions

Insurance

Reliable Protection for Your Valuable Shipments

At BlueEagle Shipping & Logistics, we assist you with cargo insurance tailored to your needs and INCOTERMS requirements. When your business ships valuable cargo across the globe, having the right freight insurance provides peace of mind. But with so many options, choosing the right coverage can be daunting. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.

Freight insurance safeguards your goods against loss, damage, or theft while in transit. It acts as a safety net for your cargo, offering coverage beyond the limited protection of carrier liability. While carriers are legally required to carry a certain level of liability insurance, it often falls short of covering the full value of your goods. Freight insurance bridges this gap with tailored coverage.
