Insurance claim preparation

Shipping Insurance Claim Packet

Organize damaged-package evidence into a clear packet before you submit a shipping insurance claim. The generator works locally in your browser, so photos and receipts do not need to be uploaded to this site.

Who this is for

Third-party shipping insurance

Prepare damage photos, proof of value, tracking details, and a concise incident summary for insurers such as Shipsurance, uPic, or Shippo.

Small sellers shipping on their own carrier account

Turn a damaged-package report from a customer into a structured evidence packet you can review before filing with the carrier.

Claim portal friction

Use the packet as your source of truth when a carrier or insurance portal keeps asking for clearer documents and item details.

FAQ

What do I need for a third-party shipping insurance claim?

Most insurers ask for damage photos, proof of value such as a receipt or invoice, the tracking number, shipment and delivery dates, and a short description of what happened. The exact requirements vary by insurer, so always check your policy or claim portal.

What if I do not have photos of the original packaging?

Use what you have. Photos of the item, the box it arrived in, and any remaining cushioning material are still useful. If the packaging was already discarded, note that in your claim and include any photos the receiver or customer sent you.

Will this tool submit my claim for me?

No. This tool prepares an organized evidence packet as a PDF. You still submit the claim yourself through your insurer, carrier portal, or claim form.

Is claim approval guaranteed?

No. Approval depends on your insurance policy, the carrier's rules, and the evidence you provide. This tool helps you organize a complete packet, but it cannot control the outcome.

Start with the photos you already have

Add the tracking number, item value, dates, item identifiers, and available evidence. You can save a clean PDF packet before entering an insurance or carrier claim portal.
