you will have insurance already in place in the fee you have paid to the shipping company and there is no point in insuring anything twice becase you wont get paid out

As mentioned above your removal/shipping company should provide this cover, usually it’s optional.
If you are storing your goods, you may wish to also cover your container during this period.
Generally a policy should cover transit (damage during transit) and marine (if the ship sinks) insurance, with additional options such as mold/mildew damage.
We shipped to Portugal last year and our removal company offered a policy by Royal & Sun Alliance, the broker was Goss & Co, tel 01483 539922.
We claimed because our bed frame was damaged by water (through the side of the HGV curtain) and our claim was settled less £50.
Distressing at the time, but managed to replace the bed frame for a similar one.
Hope this helps.

Ask a reliable broker who should scan reliable insurers to get you a good price with good cover.

The container company should be organising that!! They should have liability insurance too.
