You have always taken steps to carefully protect your personal items with all types of insurance. As you prepare to move your items, it is more important than ever to make sure your belongings are protected. Your property may travel by truck, railroad, ship or plane over a very long distance.

In the unexpected instance of lost or damaged items, our transit protection will cover repair and/or replacement costs.

Regardless of which option you choose, anything at a high value should be listed on the high-value inventory so the packing crew can provide additional packing and/or crating services to protect those items.

Here are the two protection options to choose from:

1

Volume Transit Protection

Our volume protection option will ensure that all packed goods are covered in case of damage. The cost of this protection is included upfront with every estimate.

2

Itemized Transit Protection

For this itemized option you provide a complete list of the items to be shipped and their estimated replacement value at destination. The total value of all items listed is the amount of the policy issued.

FAQS

Why do I need transit protection?

Sterling Lexicon takes every precaution we can to protect your personal belongings during your move. However, even the best processes cannot guard against the unexpected.

When household goods and personal belongings are moved from one location to another, they are exposed to risks which aren’t always in our control; this might include inclement weather or damage during customs inspections. 

For peace of mind and protection against loss or damage to your personal belongings, we offer insurance on your belongings while in transit and during any storage period.

When will my belongings be covered?

The coverage begins from the time your personal belongings are professionally packed and picked up at your residence, during transit, and until they are safely delivered and unpacked at your final destination.


What items are included in the protection cover?

  • Household goods
  • Home appliances
  • Personal belongings
  • Clothing
  • Linens
  • Antiques
  • Fine arts
  • Motorised vehicles
