If the goods in any of your deliveries become damaged or lost, you can put in a claim for their declared value. By “declared value” this means the estimated value of the goods, and doesn’t include any margin you may make on the item. In most cases this will be the cost price. We understand that at times it may be difficult and time consuming to calculate the value of your goods, but FreightSafe needs some proof towards the value of your product before they can process your claim (or in other words, give you back some money).
