Delivery is where many rental companies are most exposed. A loaded truck, a trailer of tents, or a pickup pulling a lift is a business vehicle, and carriers treat it that way.
Where rental companies run into auto gaps:
Company-owned vehicles: Box trucks, flatbeds, and trailers used for deliveries belong on a commercial auto policy.
Employee and owner vehicles: Staff who use a personal pickup for deliveries or runs can create a claim your personal policy does not cover. Commercial auto can include non-owned and hired auto coverage.
Cargo in the vehicle: Auto liability does not pay to replace the inventory on board. Inland marine coverage addresses it.
Driver management: Driving records and vehicle count affect pricing, so who is allowed to drive matters.
How Liberty structures your protection: Liberty writes commercial auto alongside your liability, property, and inland marine coverage so a delivery accident is not argued between policies, and reviews who drives what before binding.
