Inland marine insurance protects property that is transported on land for business purposes. This can include “inland” shipments of machinery, goods, components, and materials made by automobiles and trains. This includes construction, transportation, fine art, and renewable energy-related property owned or under a business’s care. With the help of Travelers Insurance, here is an explanation of what inland marine insurance is and what it can do for you.

What Exactly Is Inland Marine Insurance?

Material, goods, or equipment that moves, is transportable, or is necessary for communication or transportation are covered by inland marine insurance. This kind of insurance typically also covers items that belong to someone else, but are kept on the policyholder’s premises.

Coverage For Certain Situations

Items with significant value that are normally not covered by property insurance might alternatively be covered by inland marine insurance. The cost of repairing or replacing covered property that has been harmed by one of the covered occurrences, such as theft, fire, wind, hail, or water damage, is part of the coverage’s assistance. This kind of protection could also cover loss or damage brought on by negligence, accident, or in the event that anything goes missing for unknown reasons.

Inland Marine Insurance Most Commonly Provide For:

  • Transported property
  • Anything that moves goods or will be transported between locations
  • Radio, television, video, sound, or computer equipment
  • Electronics
  • Tools for diagnosing medical issues
  • Equipment for special events & parties
  • Collectible items and fine art
  • Windmills and solar panels
  • Miscellaneous property

Construction Insurance

Simply possessing property, operating a vehicle, owning a dog, boat, or pool, chaperoning children as a parent, posting a critical review online, or even running into some odd or unplanned circumstance such as getting into an accident while renting a car abroad, can put you in these scenarios. Large liability loss may occur for reasons other than just being wealthy or well-known.
