Property and Handling Equipment risks can be insured on either a total value basis or a first loss basis. Various deductible levels are available to meet insureds’ needs. Some insureds might decide to keep their insurance costs down by retaining more risk, such as by increasing deductibles, by introducing an aggregate retention or by taking on element of co-insurance. Wavelength can accommodate such requirements, so clients have the option to buy as much, or as little, insurance as they wish in the knowledge that Charles Taylor’s experienced claims handlers are available to help whenever the need arises.
