Cargo Insurance
Cover that matches the real risk
Carrier liability is not insurance. Under international conventions, an airline or shipping line's liability is capped by weight — often a small fraction of what your cargo is actually worth. If a container is lost overboard or a consignment is damaged in transit, that gap comes out of your margin.
Pioneer Express arranges marine and air cargo insurance that covers the declared value of your goods, not a formula. Cover can be placed per shipment or as an open policy across your annual freight volume, and it follows the cargo warehouse-to-warehouse — including the road legs at both ends where a surprising share of losses actually occur.
Because we also handle your freight and documentation, claim evidence is already in our hands. That turns claims from a paperwork hunt into a straightforward submission.
Cargo insurance key features
All-Risk Cover
Institute Cargo Clauses (A) all-risk protection against physical loss or damage from any external cause, subject to standard exclusions.
Named-Peril Options
Clauses (B) and (C) available where a narrower, lower-cost named-peril policy is the better commercial fit for your cargo profile.
Warehouse to Warehouse
Cover attaches when goods leave the origin warehouse and continues to final destination — including inland road and rail legs.
Open & Annual Policies
For regular shippers, an open policy covers every consignment automatically — no per-shipment declaration delays before dispatch.
High-Value & Sensitive Cargo
Specialist placement for high-value, temperature-sensitive, fragile and project cargo where standard terms are insufficient.
General Average Protection
Cover for general average and salvage contributions — a real exposure in ocean freight that catches uninsured shippers off guard.
Certificate Issuance
Insurance certificates issued promptly for letter-of-credit and banking requirements, matching your commercial documents exactly.
Claims Assistance
We manage survey coordination, document assembly and insurer correspondence so your team is not chasing the claim alone.
Worldwide Validity
Policies valid across our full trade lane network — no coverage gaps when routing changes or transhipment is required.
