What It Covers
FreightInsure is per-shipment transit insurance — also known as cargo insurance or freight insurance — for Australian shippers, freight forwarders, and logistics businesses. Each policy covers a single consignment from pickup to delivery, across road, rail, sea, and air freight.
If your goods are lost, damaged, or stolen in transit, you claim direct with the insurer and get paid out, subject to policy terms. Cover includes physical loss, damage in transit, and theft of goods, up to AUD 100,000 for domestic freight and AUD 50,000 for international freight, based on the declared value of your cargo.
Cover is purchased per shipment based on the goods being sent, their declared value, and the route. International transit insurance is available for shipments across multiple carriers, ocean freight, and longer trade lanes, including incidental storage during the ordinary course of transit. For full inclusions and exclusions, see the PDS.
