Trucking-specific intake

Built for the way commercial trucks work

The right policy starts with the operation—not a generic business category. We use your authority, equipment, cargo, radius, and history to help identify available markets.

01

Tractor-trailers

Dry van, reefer, flatbed, general freight, and specialized-haul operations.

02

Box & straight trucks

Local delivery, final mile, moving, retail distribution, and service routes.

03

Hotshot operators

Pickup-and-trailer combinations with time-sensitive regional or long-haul loads.

04

Vocational trucks

Dump, tow, auto-hauler, and other operations with distinct equipment and liability needs.

Coverage building blocks

Name the coverage. Then read the terms.

Not every trucking operation needs every option. Policy terms, schedules, limits, deductibles, and exclusions determine what is actually covered.

Start my operation review

Auto liability

May help pay covered third-party bodily injury and property damage arising from the use of covered autos. Limits and filing needs depend on the operation.

Physical damage

Collision and comprehensive or specified-causes coverage for scheduled tractors and trailers, subject to valuation, deductibles, terms, and exclusions.

Motor truck cargo

May cover the motor carrier’s legal liability for qualifying covered loss or damage to cargo in its care, custody, or control. Commodity, theft, reefer, and unattended-vehicle terms matter.

Trailer interchange

May cover sums the insured is legally obligated to pay for covered damage to a qualifying non-owned trailer in its possession under a written trailer-interchange agreement.

Non-trucking liability

For certain non-business use by leased-on owner-operators, subject to policy and lease terms. It is not automatically the same as bobtail use.

General liability

May cover certain non-auto premises and operations liability. It does not replace commercial auto liability.

What happens next

A short lead form. A real underwriting conversation.

The page collects enough to route the request without pretending a complex trucking risk can be fully quoted in a few clicks.

STEP 01

Share the operation

Start with authority status, equipment, unit count, cargo, radius, timing, and current coverage.

STEP 02

Agent review

A licensed commercial-lines agent confirms missing underwriting details and identifies eligible markets.

STEP 03

Compare next steps

Review available terms, limits, deductibles, exclusions, payments, and any required filings before choosing.

Federal requirements, stated carefully

“FMCSA compliant” is not one universal limit.

Authority type, cargo, vehicle weight, commerce, and hazardous materials can change the required financial responsibility. Federal floors may not satisfy state law or a contract.

Review the current FMCSA filing chart

$750K

The federal public-liability minimum for many for-hire interstate or foreign nonhazardous property carriers using vehicles with a GVWR of 10,001 pounds or more. Different federal, state, and contract limits may apply.

Higher limits can apply

Certain oil, hazardous-material, hazardous-waste, passenger, or contract exposures can require or call for more.

The insurer files

When required, the insurer or registered filer submits proof to FMCSA after eligible coverage is bound.
