Claims Resolution Group

Approximately 99.8% of our shipments are delivered damage-free. In the unlikely event damage does occur, timely notification to our freight claims team will allow us to efficiently address your situation. If you encounter damage, please follow one of the following steps:

  • Fill out an online Damage Notice (user ID and password required)
    * This process is an initial notification to Union Pacific of potential damage as you continue to gather the relevant information to fully complete the online freight claim form.
    * For destination locations served by a Foreign railroad, please notify the Delivering Carrier immediately to help assist with next steps.
  • Fill out an online Freight Claim (user ID and password required)
    * We will no longer accept a Freight Claim Form submitted via fax or email.
  • If you encounter a problem submitting a damage notice or freight claim, please send an email to our Technical Support team.
