I was not able to contact them by phone , but just got a reply from them via e-mail that they do. The reason for asking on here is I called EAA C-Plan Canada ( not whom I an insured with)and the guy said no one covers road transport, I thought he was wrong.

Jenifer at Gallagher specifically stated that I was covered on my builders risk policy while transporting the airframe on a trailer to the airport for assembly. It was really the only reason I had bought the policy. I only had the policy for a couple of months. I canceled, got a rebate on much of the premium and bought a flight policy. Check with your insurance agent. Make notes of the phone call so you document what they told you, who you talked with, date and time.

Ron - as a fellow Canuck I can assure you that C-PLAN... DID cover my kit parts during shipment. I had about $40K worth of hardware being shipped in from the US, so I was very concerned about the risk during shipment. I received confirmation from the C-PLAN account manager of the day that our parts were covered while in shipment.
NOTE: I did not specifically ask if the parts were covered when I was transporting them myself, however when I transported the partially-built airplane to the airport it WAS covered. Again, something I verified quite specifically.

I just spoke with Leah this afternoon about putting a risk policy on my project, as I am transporting mine in a couple of days about 1000 miles! She assured me that the project would be covered in transport, and her quote was very reasonable for a builder's risk policy! I will be calling them tomorrow and securing a policy. Not sure how that works going into Canada, but I'm sure they can certainly answer questions about that. Very nice people!
