“When my catering trailer was totaled in Youngstown, the insurer’s initial offer didn’t reflect the built-in ovens and refrigeration I rely on for weekend events. I ordered a SnapClaim total loss appraisal, and their detailed report included accurate local market data from Mahoning County. Thanks to their guidance, the payout was increased substantially, allowing me to replace the trailer and keep my catering business running smoothly.”
