The common misconception with shipping insurance is that the major carriers cover lost and stolen items. Even though some shipping carriers do cover SOME of the claims, it’s only up to $100 in value and once they leave the item on the doorstep and mark it as "delivered" in their system, they wash their hands of any liability. Even filing a claim that may fit in their responsibility is incredibly difficult with lackluster approvals and usually very time-consuming and frustrating, making it more of a hassle than a service worth pursuing. Carrier resolution issues are notoriously slow, and only a small controlled portion of these claims aver see any form of reimbursement. Route offers something much better.
