Cargo Insurance

As a rule, no industry in any production can do without transportation of cargo. Delivery of goods within the region in which you live, will cost an average of 5-6grn. Per kilometer. It is quite convenient, however, and this has its own nuances.

First , the customer is forced to add additional services, without giving any other choice.

Second - because the buyer does not know the real price of cargo transportation on the market, he is offered to pay a cost that is overestimated by 15-40 percent.

Third - only large companies, such as UkrAvtoTrans , include freight insurance in the cost of cargo transportation.

Fourth - when transporting construction materials to other regions, it is more rational to send cargo to the railway. Transport, rather than, on a truck. However, firms selling construction materials will impose exactly the service that they are able to provide.

Fifth - the contract of trucking is based on the benefits of the seller. Today, cargo transportation insurance is actively developing in the insurance market. However, our freight insurance system lags far behind Europe.
