Damage Claim – What Is It?
A Damage Claim is like filing a complaint when an item is broken during delivery—it’s a formal request for compensation if a vehicle is damaged during transport. The shipper or consignee submits the claim to the carrier’s insurance to cover the repair costs.
Think of it as asking for a refund when something arrives damaged—if the vehicle sustains scratches, dents, or other issues during shipping, the claim helps cover the costs to fix it.
Example:
A customer receives their car shipped from New York to Florida and notices a scratch on the bumper. They file a damage claim with the carrier’s insurance to get reimbursed for the repair. 🚗🔧📄
