Show Notes
Are you rolling the dice on your business by operating underinsured, or worse, with the wrong coverage entirely? We've got Michele McGinnis from MiKargo247 back on the show today to explain why cargo insurance is the absolute backbone of a sustainable supply chain!
We cover the rising epidemic of cargo theft and why relying on standard carrier policies, which often exclude high-value commodities or driver errors, is a gamble you can't afford to take.
Whether you're a freight broker navigating a tightening market or a carrier looking to secure high-value loads into Mexico or Canada, Michele explains how insurtech is leveling the playing field.
We also dive into the benefits of all-risk spot coverage, the critical difference between reefer breakdown and errors and omissions, and how you can protect your margins with instant, per-load insurance certificates. Don't let a single claim bankrupt your operation; it's time to get your coverage dialed in so you can keep moving freight with total confidence!
