Arcade Machine Shipping Insurance

Arcade Machines are shipped wrapped and strapped to a pallet with foam, cardboard and steel strapping and insured for the full value. LTL Carrier Insurance will cover a dollar amount per pound up to a maximum amount when the full value is not declared. These amounts vary depending on the LTL Carrier used to transport the shipment. Retro Active Arcade Ltd ALWAYS includes the full value of the machine for insurance. LTL Carrier Insurance will cover the total declared value of the shipment if the damage is found to be the fault of the carrier AND damages are reported within 24 hours of the consignee receiving the goods.

Crating your machine will provide additional protection during transit and be more likely to be approved for the full insurance value through the carrier. Crating costs extra and is available by special request. Crating is subject to material costs and availability.
