Insurance Services in Downey, California

High standard insurance for all

Motor Truck Cargo insurance (Cargo) is designed specifically to cover transporters for damaged or lost freight due to causes such as fire, collision, or striking of a load while in transit and during loading or unloading. It covers property while at a terminal or dock awaiting final distribution and can be customized to cover physical loss caused by spoilage or temperature changes due to the breakdown of refrigeration or heating equipment.
