    Comprehensive insurance for your assignees from the global leaders in relocation services

    Our professional packing crews, secure storage and international transportation are arguably the best in the business, and so is our international moving insurance cover. 

    We are dedicated to providing a professional transportation service, with experts handling assignee possessions with the utmost care. However,  as a global leader in relocations all over the globe, Gerson understands that international relocations can be complex processes. Accidents can happen, with damages or lost belongings, that are out of our control, so our insurance packages are on hand to provide complete peace of mind from start to finish.

    While there are external providers, there are specific benefits of being covered by Gerson Relocation’s moving insurance. Our plans are competitively priced, we are able to provide cover that is entirely specific to your moving plans, and with our connections and experience, we can provide seamless and fast claim resolutions. It’s also an easy process to add cover to any moving project with us, ensuring peace of mind for you and your assignees.

    Do I need insurance for my international move?

    International relocations involve countless moving parts. Even with our leading service offering, the process creates the opportunity for risk for your most prized possessions. While assignees are navigating the move themselves, the added stress of damaged or lost belongings can make assignments more stressful. Insurance is recommended when moving your items, especially if employees are moving long distances. If you wish to protect against these additional risks, then you should consider our international moving insurance packages.

    Be aware that home contents insurance will not protect you against the risks of international relocations, you will require this specific type of cover.

    How does Gerson’s moving insurance work?

    Our moving insurance packages are designed to cover your possessions throughout the international relocation process based purely on your requirements. 

    Step 1: Submit a relocation query

    Our website makes it easy to get a quote to find out how our services could support your employee assignments abroad.

    Step 2: Speak with our expert relocation advisors

    Bring every aspect of the required relocation project to our attention, including the relocation destination and the types of belongings that are to be transported. From this, we will be able to recommend the most suitable insurance packages for your requirements.

    Step 3: Manage the relocation(s) with peace of mind

    You can then proceed knowing that the right cover is in place to protect against the worst that could happen during the international relocation process.

    Types of moving insurance

    There are different insurance packages that we offer for your unique and specific requirements when moving or planning a move. After an initial consultation, we’ll give you advice as to whether you need a certain type of insurance based on your relocation and what you are planning to move.

    Cover for high-value and delicate items

    In the case of very highly valued belongings, this should be communicated with the insurance provider. For any items that are unique or of high valuation then we will require a list of these from the assignee so that we can properly cover them for the duration of the relocation.

    Moving insurance for international removals

    The task of moving an entire home’s worth of contents overseas is no small feat. While many domestic moving companies offer marine loss or damage insurance as standard, it’s important to know what that covers. With Gerson, we’ll make sure your household goods are covered in the event they get damaged or lost during relocation.

    Home removals insurance for UK removals

    We provide insurance cover as standard for losses and damages when we move your assignee’s goods within the UK. Although we take as much care as possible with your assignee’s belongings, accidents can still happen, so it’s important that they’re covered in the event of something going wrong.

    Please be aware that if there are any high-value items they will need to be covered by a different type of home removals insurance.

    Storage insurance

    Storing goods is a great way to free up space during a relocation, and we are proud to provide our secure storage services for removals. Items in storage are at risk of damage during transport, damage during storage, or theft in some circumstances. We provide secure storage services and insurance to cover your assignee’s goods. You need only let us know the number of goods and the price of any high-value items and we’ll give you a competitive insurance quote that covers everything.
