So can you use any insurance company to cover your shipping or does it have to be the one recommended by the shipping company?
Am confused!

You are free to insure with whomever you please but I think it is worth taking the following into consideration:-
* The insurance must be 'marine' insurance (obvious to some but not all)
* The insurance company is local to your destination in the event of a claim.
Maybe someone can add to this
