Cargo coverage that follows the shipment

SkarBridge writes shipping insurance for businesses moving freight daily. Transit limits, loss and damage response, claims routing, and rates that usually beat carrier declared-value fees.

Coverage focus

Program modules

Four coverage paths, one shipping insurance account

Intermodal containers stacked at a port terminal

Cargo protection

Goods leave your dock and the risk clock starts. Limits attach to the lane, the carrier, and the declared value you file per shipment.

Semi-trucks hauling freight on an interstate highway

Damage and loss

Crush, water, theft, misdelivery. When the exception report lands, you need a named adjuster and a file number, not a chatbot.

Cranes loading containers at a cargo terminal

Claims monitoring

Status updates route to your ops inbox. Most shippers we work with want weekly summaries until the shipment closes.

International transit

Ocean, air, and inland legs on one certificate. Cross-border paperwork stays aligned when custody changes hands.

Network footprint

Teams where freight actually moves

Underwriters, adjusters, and client service sit on the lanes you ship. Not a single toll-free line and a prayer.

Figures use standard published declared-value tariffs. Your negotiated carrier rates may differ.

Shipment data your finance team can use

Loss ratios by lane, carrier exception rates, open claim aging. SkarBridge reports read like ops dashboards, not brochure copy.

Where competitors actually buy coverage

Public filings and carrier mix data show which lanes get insured above minimum declared value. Useful when you rebid a 3PL contract.

File structure before the loss happens

Photos, weights, bills of lading. We send a checklist at bind so your warehouse team knows what adjusters ask for on day one.

Store checkout

Optional protection at cart checkout

Your buyer toggles coverage on. Limit matches order value. Fewer chargebacks when cartons arrive beat up.

  • Cart or checkout widget
  • Per-order limits tied to SKU value
  • Claims queue for high-volume merchants
  • Works beside Shopify, Woo, custom stacks

Shippers who stayed after the first claim

Honestly, I didn't expect much from another insurance vendor. SkarBridge walked us through coverage options without the usual jargon pile. Our import docs got simpler, and I spend less time chasing certificates before containers sail.
