Moving insurance offers full protection to household items against unexpected damages or misplacement at every step of the move. Movers offer 2 types of moving insurance, i.e., all-inclusive insurance (covers goods from start to end of relocation) and transit insurance (covers goods only during transportation).
Purchasing insurance is not at all compulsory, especially if you’re moving over short distances since damages would be much less. However, when shifting over long distances, it is advisable to get insurance cover as the risk is much higher due to unforeseen circumstances like accidents, fire, or natural disasters.
