With all due respect.  The coverage does exist.......I have a
specialized program for records storage/data storage centers which
includes restoration/recovery (not only paper but media/digital as
well).

Not on the list to sell though so please feel free to respond offlist.

Subject: Re: Valuable Papers Insurance

I asked our VP, who has researched this subject in-depth as a matter of
course for our business (records transportation and relocation).  His
response:

"Valuable paper insurance only covers the same replacement of box
folders and paper for the third party. It is only good if you have it
for yourself and also can have particular requirements on how records
are moved by a third party vendor. The insurance for third party
protection to include recovery does not exist in our experience."

Hope this helps...

Subject: Valuable Papers Insurance

Good Afternoon,

I have been tasked with researching whether or not the urban myth that 
companies pay only $2 per box when they loose a box is true.  I found
out 
that the myth is true.  I know one way to deal with this is to buy
valuable 
papers insurance.  (I did search the archives on this topic.)  Are there
any 
other methods to compensate for lost or destroyed records that you know
of 
and if there are, what are they?  If you do obtain the insurance, how do
you 
determine the amount to insure your records?  It seems to me that that
is the 
really tricky part.  Also, those of you who have the insurance, have any
of 
you collected on it and what was that process like?

Thanks,

Laura Boldt, CRM
