Car Transport Insurance: What to Check
Know what applies to your vehicle before collection. Ask Jack for the relevant goods-in-transit cover, limits and terms for your proposed DMT transport booking.
Understand the cover for your vehicle
Ask for the goods-in-transit insurance details that apply to the vehicle and the proposed transport arrangement. Check the vehicle value, policy limits, excess and exclusions rather than relying on a general description.
Confirm when cover applies during loading, transit and delivery, and tell Jack about any seller, finance company or insurer requirements before booking.
Record the vehicle’s condition
Take clear, dated photographs before collection and agree how the vehicle condition will be recorded at delivery. Keep the agreed transport details and the contacts authorised to hand over and receive the car.
Belongings and special requirements
Ask what may remain in the vehicle and how personal items are treated. Raise existing damage, loose components, modifications and any unusual handling requirements before the loading arrangement is agreed.
