Why U-PIC Beats Carrier Insurance
Carrier-declared value isn’t true insurance - and it’s expensive. UPS and FedEx typically charge $1.30+ per $100 declared value, and USPS rates climb fast. Plus, claims can be denied for small errors or policy fine print.
U-PIC Shipping Insurance offers real insurance - with better rates, broader protection, and trusted service used by thousands of businesses nationwide.
