DCS Cargo Insurance
Should something go wrong when you’re shipping cargo, the compensation to which you’re entitled is normally calculated against a ‘limited liability clause'.
Under limited liability, damaged or lost cargo is assessed by weight, not value. So in all likelihood, your compensation could be dramatically less than the commercial value of the goods.
Our solution for you
For a competitive premium, DCS CARGO INSURANCE will cover your freight against loss or damage from any external cause. Flexible to meet your needs it can be arranged as follows:
Ad-hoc Insurance Policy: one-off cover for a specific shipment.
Annual Insurance Policy: insures all DCS Global Forwarding shipments over the course of a pre-defined period such as one year.
