Question Baggage/travel insurance

Hi,
I am trying to find some insurance that will cover me for bring expensive electrical equipment over when I emigrate.

So far I have found one company that will cover each person’s baggage for £3,000 but a maximum of £300 for a single item, which isn't enough.

Does anyone know of an insurer who offers this?

Thanks

You could air freight your equipment over on Air Transat Cargo, for example (it can come on the same flight as you) - they offer separate insurance which is likely higher than you would get with a normal travel insurance.

LeisureCargo: The Total Air Cargo Management Experts

If you go to their 'contact' page and select UK, then the nearest airport, it gives the email address and phone number - you could give them a call and find out what the limits are on insurance.

Cargo insurance also covers to final destination, travel insurance ends when you and your bags arrive at the destination airport.
