Store Ur Box Insurance

We recommend that our customers take out Store Ur Box insurance protection as you can never be too careful that something unforeseen may happen! The reason you are storing with us is that your things are special and important so this is why they should be protected. 

When we say ‘Store Ur Box insurance protection’ don’t worry we are underwritten by  Allianz, one of the world’s best known insurers and financial services groups. While arranging protection is a simple process, there are some important base details you need to be aware of;

  • Our insurance charges are monthly and will be integrated with your monthly storage payment
  • Your goods will be covered  to the total value you have requested, however the value will be spread equally across the total number of individual cartons, crates or suitcases you want insured. For example if you insure 5 crates for $10,000 the individual crates are covered for $2000 each.
  • The total amount insured can’t exceed $10,000 per individual box, crate or suitcase.
  • If  you change the number of items you are  storing, the original agreed value will still be spread across the remaining number under our care  unless you change the insured value direct with us.
  • The insurance does not cover the loss of or damage to individual items stored within the crate(s) unless the whole crate is lost or damaged

Here’s some more important stuff on the insurance cover we provide;
