Double check your insurance coverage

Don’t make the mistake of assuming your insurance coverage covers everything you ship.  For example, if you insure books on a regular basis, but have a one-time shipment of picture frames, your standard coverage may not apply (breakage of glass may be excluded).  Always confirm coverage before you ship.
