Transportation

​Specialist risk and insurance solutions for the transport and logistics sector

Logistics and transportation has changed out of all recognition in recent years: it’s a 24/7 science with many moving parts. Process methodologies like JIT and portcentricity have collapsed supply chain timelines in the permanent drive for improved efficiency, profitability and competitive edge. Widespread uptake of real-time inventory management, route planning and live tracking technology systems now ensure the right products are in the right place at the right time, with the right people and in the right volume.

We are one of the UK’s leading insurance brokers for the transport and logistics sector and many of our highly qualified risk consultants are experienced in your industry. This commitment helps us deliver the insight, empathy and innovation that ensure your range of transportation, haulage and fleet insurance policies are simple, competitive, efficient and cost effective. It also provides you with on-tap expertise from people who take the time to understand your business and your processes – then translate that knowledge into transportation insurance that works harder for your business.

Our transportation team has access to the Lloyd’s, London and regional insurance markets. This gives us the ability and know-how to implement and service both UK and global insurance programmes. We act as advisers to industry trade bodies and associations and have developed a number of exclusive transportation insurance facilities - including bespoke cover for Hanson Franchisees and TNT.

Our tailored transportation insurance solutions span the full spectrum of road transportation applications, including:

• Motor fleet
• Car transportation 
  
• Goods in transit
• Health & Safety
• Employers’ Liability
• Public Liability
• Contractual Advice
• Warehousing
• Self insured solutions

We also offer a number of exclusive insurer facilities, including comprehensive policy wordings designed specifically for our clients - plus wholly in-house claims handling that means you’re not just a policy number.

So whether you’re a small operator, a contractor, a third party logistics operator or a manufacturer with an in-house fleet, you can rest assured that we have the transportation insurance skills and the service ethics that adds value, continuity and sustainability to your business. However complex your transportation, haulage or fleet insurance needs, you can rely on us to go that extra mile - so you don’t have to.
