Carrier/Broker Cargo Liability

Posted by a private BulkLoads.com member.	Posted by a private BulkLoads.com member. Hello to everyone. I’m just looking for a little feed back. I recently had a cargo claim that exceeds my cargo coverage of $150,000. I deal with this particular broker and the company that owns the piece of equipment that was damaged on a very regular basis. I have always been asked to up my coverage any time I have hauled anything for them that exceeds my coverage in the past, just my luck the one one time I didn’t raise my coverage something happens. Any way I was just curious if anyone could give me a little info. In my opinion the rest of the coverage should fall on the broker. Thanks and have a great day.
