Cannabis inventory remains at high risk while in transit. Many property policies cover only goods within 100 ft of the premises, so a property-in-transit enhancement is necessary. To protect products:
• Use secure vehicles and licensed, insured carriers with GPS tracking and lockable compartments.
• Schedule routes strategically to minimize dwell time and avoid predictable patterns.
• Train drivers on security protocols and state regulations.
• Insure inventory in transit—property-in-transit coverage protects against theft, accidents, or spoilage.
• Coordinate with receiving facilities to ensure immediate handoff and reduce time in unsecured areas.
Robust transport protocols and insurance coverage help maintain supply chain integrity.
