Cargo Insurance for Your Valuables

We are authorized to pack and crate almost any high-value item with special arrangements through our insurance company. This excellent coverage is available to us because of our many years of very low claims ratios. Whether you have to move a single piece of furniture, an entire estate, or your business, Craters & Freighters Houston is a trusted, one-stop resource.

Our Insurance Program Is as Unique as Our Company

Craters & Freighters isn’t your ordinary crating and shipping company. Our boxes and crates are customized, and we have a variety of materials we use to protect your items from damage (PE foam, bubble, glassine, anti-static wrap, vapor barrier, heat shrink, etc.).

Shipping & Cargo Insurance

We can insure high-value items through our insurance company. Craters & Freighters Houston is experienced in packing and shipping fragile and sensitive items as well as large and heavy items.

Craters & Freighters Houston is your one-stop shipping center. You can rest assured that your items will be protected. Coverage is in place while items are in our care (pickup, packaging, and transit to final destination).

Types of Coverage:

  • Standard Cargo: Is an “All-Risk” coverage and protects against loss or damage. This coverage is used for most items such as artwork, furniture, new electronics, or machinery.
  • JSO (Job Service Order): Is for packing only, either in a corrugated box or crate and for local pickup and delivery. No coverage while items are transported by common carrier.
  • Limited Liability (also known as Lost Only): Is for customer-packed goods. Doesn’t cover concealed or visible damage to items. Coverage will protect your items in the event of theft or disappearance of full container or entire shipment.
  • Used Electronics & Machinery: Is for used electronics or machinery that is over one year old. Covers visible damage only.
