What trucking usually needs
- Auto liability — the first thing shippers and brokers ask for.
- Motor truck cargo — most brokers ask for it before they load you.
- Physical damage — lenders usually ask for it on financed trucks.
- General liability — asked for once you have employees, or when you work inside a customer's yard or warehouse.

Every operation is priced differently. Pick the one closest to yours.
Questions we get on the phone
Send us the shipper or broker name and where to send it, and we work on it the same business day during office hours. Most COIs go out within the hour.
It depends how the trailer is listed and which coverages you buy. Owned trailers are usually scheduled on the policy; rented or interchanged trailers are handled differently. Tell us how you use it and we will confirm before you sign.
Call or send us the license and date of birth. We submit the driver to the carrier, and they decide whether they accept him and whether the premium changes. Do not put a new driver on the road assuming he is covered until we confirm.
Yes, we work with new authorities. Fewer carriers accept them and the terms are usually different from an established operation, so call us early and we will tell you honestly what your options look like.
Yes. Tell us which filing you have been asked for and we coordinate it with the carrier. Timing depends on the carrier and on the agency processing it, so we tell you what to expect once it is submitted.
