Insurance for your contents in storage

You might be surprised to learn that your personal property stored at a public self storage facility is not covered by the facility for loss or damage. In addition, your Homeowners or Tenants insurance policy may only provide limited coverage on your property while in storage. In fact, most policies only provide coverage for 30 days.

While the Annacis Lock-Up is taking steps to minimize risks, it’s important to protect your contents from some of the perils that unfortunately sometimes occur, such as fire, theft, earthquake, flood, and sewer back-up.

Individuals using a public self storage facility in British Columbia now have access to our StorageShield™ online quote. At Cowan we offer comprehensive coverage with protection against most losses, and a low deductible. In 5 easy steps, you can get a quote, purchase coverage, pay your premium, and print and/or email your policy. Simply click on the button below.
