High‑value backup generators are best protected by Separate cargo insurance, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for total project value, confirm that Loading and unloading are covered, and retain inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built Industrial machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.

Crated industrial machinery may be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is Weather‑resistant and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and backup generators Are better kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, verify wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
