Processus de réclamation simplifié

Processing your claims just got easier

If you are faced with an unforeseen transport-related incident, the last thing you want to deal with is endless paperwork, back-and-forth phone calls and a lengthy claims process. As your shipment is booked with us, we already possess most of the information needed, reducing time and some of the pain points for you.

Our simple four-step claims process enables you to focus on more important business while we handle the rest. Please get in touch with your local customer service representatives in writing, providing them with a claim cover letter, a notification of the damage and all required supporting documents.
