Bill,
I ship all of my engines with Fedex Freight and they have been great. If the crate isn't damaged, it falls on who packaged it. It should have been secured better. You should see my crates. They are damn near bulletproof. They have to be with these shipping companies.
I shipped a pair of engines to Ca. with Bax Global. They put a forklift fork through the side of the crate and through the valve cover. Pieces of the valve cover made it down through the heads and into the lifter valley. From there some pieces went all the way to the pan. It was a 598 ci with 2.3 quadrotors. I had to remove the blowers and intake, oil pan, etc to clean it all out. I was still a nervous wreck that I didn't get it all. I flew to CA. to do it. I had it sent to a local shop and I flew out to fix it myself. Bax only paid for the valve cover. They would not pay any labor to fix it. The cover was the only actual broken part.However, it cost me a couple grand to fix it.(plane ticket, rental car, hotel, etc) They were insured for 30K each since that was Bax's maximum. I got about $300 from them for the cover. Needless to say, I never shipped with them again. Sorry for your trouble. Call me if I can help in any way. Good luck.
Eddie

With my family being in the moving and storage and rigging business since 1923 I can tell you ALL the packing in the world you PAID for don't mean $hit if you didn't put a "VALUATION" on the shippment! What this means is the company doing the shipping IS NOT an insurance Company, they are The Carriers, they can't sell you insurance BUT they CAN sell you VALUATION (Same thing, different words). Now, in order to be covered you MUST cover the entire shippment for "THE TOTAL VALUE" meaning 100% of what those engines cost you to replace so you would have wanted "TOTAL VALUE REPLACEMENT VALUATION". Any questions call me, Augie, 201-665-1033. The shipping Company should have told you all this up front. Bad Bussiness
