Shipping Insurance

Hello all!

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for shipping insurance for our move? We are shopping around to see if we can get a better rate than the shipping company provides.

Cheers

Easy! Do NOT use your packing company's insurance. Go direct to Letton Percival - cheapest and best by a long way.

Thanks so much Hurlabrick! We ended up signing up with the company you recommended Doree Bonner.

Yeah, we were very happy with DB and their Canadian partner. Everything arrived totally intact (unlike an internal Canadian move from Ottawa to London, ON move with a different mover I might add!!).

We insured through Letton Percival who are both cheap and have excellent reviews for claims service. DB had no problem with our separate insurance and were not the least bit surprised.

Best of luck with your move!
