<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">Have been mulling over all the inputs and right now I feel like checking in as luggage is off the cards - most of the responses have been horror
stories </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family:"Apple Color Emoji";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">😃</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB"> We have done this before for our own internal equipment and it’s been
OK, but I wouldn’t do it in this case. IMO even if I wasn’t as worried about the equipment, it can be quite a hassle, so easier just to ship it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">Quotes from sensitive freight companies – TSS and COPE are the two I’ve seen recommended. From some rough info about TSS it seems like they’d insure high value equipment without it costing and arm and a
leg.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">To be honest, the idea of just having general transit cover for anything that leaves our offices is an attractive idea, as we already ship new PCs etc from our offices nearly every day. And as luck would
have it, it seems like we just lost 1 of 2 Wifi Access points sent to the same site… Glad it wasn’t the expensive equipment.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">Driving the gear to site is definitely a good option, but as Joe mentioned, in this case it’d be a massive trip and the cost per day for the customer for our time would outweigh even TNT’s insurance – though

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just wondering how people handle the situation of transit insurance for domestic shipping of high value equipment? I am looking at options for TNT’s transit warranty and 1) It’s pricey and will cost thousands to get a warranty 2) They max
out coverage at $40K it seems. I suppose we might be able to work around that with multiple separate shipments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’ve got new Cisco gear worth 70-90K that we are shipping to one of our offices for configuration, then from NSW to a customer’s site in far north QLD. I’m not really keen on just trusting the gear won’t be damaged, so I’m looking for
safe options to courier the equipment – I’m wondering if anyone is aware of good options for this sort of situation?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are also attending site so it’s possible that we could just check the boxes in as luggage, but I’m not sure if I trust baggable handlers any better. Typically we’d just ship directly to site, but we don’t really want to configure and
test it entirely onsite as that has it’s own challenges in this case.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
