“When my small delivery van was totaled in Parma, the insurance company’s initial offer didn’t account for the custom shelving and refrigeration I had installed for my local catering business. I ordered a SnapClaim total loss appraisal, and their report provided detailed, data-backed comparisons from Parma and nearby Cuyahoga County. The payout was adjusted significantly, allowing me to replace my van quickly and keep my business running smoothly.”
