Can I assume my goods are fully covered for Insurance when I entrust them to Burhill Logistics Ltd?
No. We trade under the BIFA 2005 and UKWA 2002 standard trading conditions and have limited liability conditions. This is the case with most elements in the Supply Chain, e.g. hauliers, warehouses, ports, terminals, airlines, shipping lines etc. These limits may not come anywhere near the value of your goods, unless exceptional agreements are made.
Therefore, it is the responsibility of the owner of the goods to ensure Cargo Insurance Cover is in place to protect your specific consignments as they journey from A to B. It is important that you identify who is responsible for insuring and you should refer to the Incoterm being used for your transaction.
