Is my auction transport insured against damage?
Updated at: 2026-02-09 15:15Yes! Your auction purchase is also insured when transported via Brenger. Everything you ship with Brenger is automatically insured against damage, theft, loss or misappropriation during the transport — from pickup to delivery.
Just like our other transports, your auction item is insured up to €500 against:
Visible, physical damage caused during the transport
Loss, theft or misappropriation of items during transport
What is not covered?
Not everything falls under the insurance. The following situations are not covered:
- Damage to anything other than the transported items (such as your home, stairs, garden or elevator)
- Damage that did not occur during transport (items that were already damaged or incomplete beforehand)
- Internal or functional damage that is not visible upon delivery
- Functional damage to electronic devices
- Damage to packaged items without visible damage to the packaging
- Damage caused while you help with lifting during pickup or delivery
- Damage to items that cannot be transported via Brenger (these are listed as excluded items, such as cash, food and hazardous materials)
- Damage reported later than 48 hours after delivery will not be processed
