Fedex minimum insurance for special handling


I remember reading the answer to this question before but didn't find it on searching.

What is minimum amount of insurance to purchase for a shipment that makes Fedex take special care of the package? I remember it's some amount $2000 or $5000 something like that. Once someone sent something to me and Fedex called me a couple of times when it was on the way and after it was delivered to make sure it arrived ok. I asked about it and they told me the insurance amount made them take care of it that way.

Doesn't matter if they can pick it up they will still throw it off the truck and let it bounce a couple times and then leave...They do suck...! I guess you can tell i had a bad experiance huh??
Funny, FedEx just bounced a 135# amp box I just sent and didn't ask me anything, it was declared for $5,500.

Fortunately it was double boxed in factory packaging and made it safely.

I find as a general rulle, the heavier something is the more likely it will be damaged. If you have concerns, ship things on a palette freight.
Well, I hope my luck holds. I've shipped a lot of stuff with Fedex including 3 or 4 sets of speakers and never had a problem. I've had problems with UPS and USPS - a number of problems. I won't use either of them if I can help it. But Fedex has gone above and beyond several times. I know all it takes is one slacker to bust it up but whatcha gonna do?
