Who Needs Trucking Insurance?

Commercial trucking insurance is a necessity for individuals or companies that own and operate trucks for commercial purposes. Commercial trucking insurance is crucial for any business or individual that relies on transportation to conduct their operations, whether they are transporting goods, equipment, or people.

Why Do I Need Trucking Insurance?

First, it is required by law in most states and is necessary to protect businesses and individuals from financial loss in the event of an accident, theft, or damage to their vehicles.

In addition to being legally required in most states, commercial trucking insurance protects against significant financial losses that can result from accidents, cargo damage or theft, and other events. Without proper insurance, businesses and individuals who rely on commercial trucks may face severe financial consequences that can impact their operations, livelihoods, and reputation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Trucking Insurance

The types of coverage you need for your commercial trucking business depend on the specific needs and risks of your operations. You may need specialized coverage for specific risks, such as pollution liability or refrigeration breakdown. It is important to work with an experienced insurance provider who can assess your business’s needs and help you find the right coverage for your commercial trucking operations.

The cost of trucking insurance can vary widely depending on a variety of factors, including the size and type of the commercial truck, the cargo being transported, the distance traveled, the driving record of the driver, and the level of coverage needed. On average, the cost of commercial trucking insurance can range from a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands of dollars per year. It is important to shop around and compare quotes from multiple insurance providers to find the best coverage at a competitive price.

At Liberty, we can find you the best coverage at the best rates from the Nation’s top carriers.

While liability insurance covers damages or injuries caused to other parties in accidents where the commercial truck driver is at fault, cargo insurance is specifically designed to protect the cargo being transported by the commercial truck. Cargo insurance is not always required by law, but it may be required by shippers or customers who want to ensure that their goods are protected during transport. Therefore, while liability insurance is mandatory, cargo insurance is often a wise investment for commercial trucking businesses to protect their own assets and reputation in case of cargo damage or loss.

At Liberty, we recommend you choose our team of experts because we offer expert guidance, quotes from all the best carriers, claims support, and a host of other options that will maximize the performance of your business.
