Cargo insurance

Protect your revenue stream and gain peace of mind with Livingston’s “all risk” cargo insurance. It offers you complete coverage, and your claims will be resolved quickly without having to prove carrier neglect to collect your claim. From the moment your shipment leaves your facility until its final arrival we have your goods covered.

What we do:

  • Livingston will handle all of your paperwork.
  • Livingston offers competitive rates and a local presence to ensure you get the best service and coverage possible

Restricted party screening

If time and resources are limited, or if you simply want to avoid the penalties of non-compliance, Livingston’s Export Operations service, which includes restricted party screening, offers the flexibility and reliability you need when it comes to freight forwarding.
