Cargo Insurance and Filing Claims
Included in your freight charges is a premium for cargo insurance. Young Brothers' Tariff 5-A is an insured tariff, which means that damages are claimed against your own cargo insurance. YB makes the insurance available to you at a reduced rate. For more information, you may download detailed insurance information.
If damage occurs or your vehicle is lost, you may file a claim under your cargo insurance. The claim will be handled through a third party claims adjuster, who has been appointed by the cargo insurer. For more information, you may download instructions for filing a claim and/or download a claim form.
Listed below are some of the key points to remember when you are filing a claim.
- You must notify the cargo insurer in writing that you intend to file a claim within 60 days after your vehicle is delivered or should have been delivered.
- You must file a completed claim form, which you can get from this website or any Young Brothers' office.
- You must include all of the documents listed on the instruction sheet.
- You must include two repair estimates.
- You should expect to receive a settlement within 4-6 weeks after filing all of your required documents.
