Cargo Insurance

Cargo insurance provides peace of mind

We are very focused on loss prevention to ensure that your goods have a safe journey from A to B. However, sometimes they can be damaged, stolen, or lost through events that are out of your or our control – this is where DB Schenker cargo insurance comes in. 

We can quickly and easily arrange insurance for your shipments in most parts of the world. So your goods are covered for theft, loss, or damage while under our care.

What is insured?

Our cargo insurance covers you on an all-risks basis. Generally, this means that every risk not specifically excluded is insured. Some examples of what is covered:

  • Loss of or damage to goods during loading onto or from a means of transport, or during trans-shipment to or from a means of transport
  • Fire, lightning, explosions, and other natural disasters
  • Strike or crashing of a flying object or parts thereof, including its cargo
