What's the difference between cargo insurance and carrier liability?

A carrier's liability to shippers is limited by contract and law — often far below the load's value. Shippers insure their goods with cargo coverage; carriers insure their legal liability. Which one you need depends on which side of the bill of lading you're on.

Are high-value or high-theft loads insurable?

Yes, with the right market — electronics, food, and metals carry theft ratings and security conditions (locked yards, tracking). We place them with insurers who write the commodity knowingly.

Is my trailer's contents covered by my truck insurance?

No — auto policies cover the vehicle and road liability, not the freight. Cargo is its own coverage, and the gap between them is where uninsured load losses happen.
