You could also give pgloader a try.
It uses COPY but allows you to load good data even in the presence of errors,
and have a reject file containing erroneous data lines, to replay insertion
later.
It even allows you to reorder data for matching your columns definition, but
as of now suffer from a psycopg2 limitation : you have to provide all table
columns into your data file.

Hope this helps,
