In general, most couriers do not know exactly what they are carrying at any one time, so if you are not expressly aware of what you are transporting, you will not be penalised in terms of insurance costs for carrying high-value goods. That being said, it’s always wise to try and understand what you’re transporting, as you can take additional care to ensure that your courier insurance policy provides the appropriate level of cover.

However, if you have a contract with a particular firm and you know that you are transporting theft-attractive cargo, our dedicated courier insurance team can help. Insurance Revolution has taken the time to build close relationships with many of the UK’s leading courier vehicle insurance providers, meaning we have a great chance of being able to find someone who will cover you and your courier vehicle. Moreover, our relationships with these large-scale and self employed courier insurance providers mean we can always work to find you the best price, even though there is the potential for a higher insurance cost for high-value goods.

Our team will help you compare courier insurance options to ensure that you have access to the most appropriate level of coverage to suit your needs. Whether it’s hire and reward or goods in transit insurance that you require, we’re here to help you drive and deliver with confidence.
