To avoid losses incurred because of accidents during transportation, these items should be insured. The type of insurance that is relevant to this kind of risk is Marine Cargo Insurance.

Transportation insurance is provided specifically for owners of goods both individuals, institutions, and companies, who need protection for the transportation of goods. Whether it is transportation using its own fleet or using the services of transportation companies.
