The Worst-Case Scenario Tip

Most storage facilities will carry some degree of insurance in the event of loss or destruction of inventory, but be sure to carry your own coverage to doubly protect yourself. Small publishers commonly add a rider to their homeowner’s insurance policy or business insurance policy or business insurance policy to insure their stored inventory. Be prepared to provide your insurance company with the location of the storage facility, year of construction, type of construction (wood frame, steel, etc.), whether there are hazardous materials stored on site, and details on the facility’s security system.
