Your vehicles are a major asset. Your commercial trucking insurance policy must adequately cover these vehicles to protect your company against various risks.
What specific coverage is right for your business enterprise? We can assist business owners in getting commercial trucking insurance for tractors, pickups, tow trucks, box trucks, dump trucks, vans, and many other types of commercial vehicles. Whether you need to add cargo coverage, liability, rental reimbursement, trailer interchange, or need a more basic policy, we can help.
Every commercial trucking insurance policy has restrictions and exclusions. You need to understand your coverage, and our local agents take the time to explain the fine print so you can make the right decision. Establishing the right coverage, the right limits, the right deductibles, and the right types of optional coverage can help you lower the monthly costs of your commercial truck insurance.
Primary Liability
Every trucker/trucking company that operates under their own authority is required to carry primary liability coverage on all owned units and either provide this insurance for their leased vehicles or insure that the leased operator carries it on their own. Generally, the motor carrier provides this coverage for the leased operators but there are rare instances when this is not the case.
Cargo Insurance
Provides coverage for loss or damage to the property a truck is transporting (the load). Generally, though not always, provided by the motor carrier for leased operators.
Physical Damage (Collision, Specified Perils)
Provides coverage for repair or replacement for damage resulting from a covered loss (collision, fire, theft, hail, windstorm, earthquake, flood, mischief, or vandalism) to owned vehicles.
