19.2.3 We recommend that the insurance cover that you take out is for a sum which is at least equal to the replacement value of the Goods stored in the Warehouse or Container from time-to-time, and may require you to provide evidence of such insurance cover prior to collection and while your goods remain on site.
19.2.4 In order to give You more protection, we may offer You the opportunity to benefit from our insurance policy using a policy available through us.

Please note that if you would like to agree a higher limit of liability this can be arranged at an additional cost. 
20.2 We will not be responsible for any loss or damage caused by us, our employees or agents in circumstances where there is no breach of legal duty or care owed to You by us, or by any of our employees or agents, such loss or damage is not a reasonably foreseeable result of any such breach, and any increase in loss or damage resulting from breach by You of any term of the Agreement
