Your truck insurance policy is only as promising as the company behind it. Whether you’re an owner-operator or manage a small or large fleet, we can provide you with flexible commercial trucking coverage options that are specifically tailored to meet your needs as an Oregon trucker.

Understanding Commercial Trucking Insurance

Commercial trucking insurance is a type of commercial auto insurance policy designed to cover trucking needs. Any business that uses trucks for commercial reasons needs this insurance. Typically, there is coverage for virtually every possible scenario your truck could be involved in.

Every business owner’s needs are different and require different types of coverage. It’s quite essential to understand the various types of coverages you might need before you begin your trucking operations.

Typically, all banks and lenders require borrowers to have insurance coverage for the fair value of a property. This is to ensure the mortgage lender’s financial investment in your home is protected if it’s damaged or destroyed by a fire, a lightning storm or some other covered event.

Types of Coverage

  • Primary Liability Truck Insurance – This is a basic requirement needed for anyone who seeks to get behind the wheel of a truck. It covers bodily injury and property damage done to others while operating your truck.
  • General Liability Truck Insurance – This is state-required insurance that covers incidents that happen while operating on someone else’s premises, such as slip and fall accidents, loading docks and truck stops incidents and loading delivery errors.
  • Physical Damage Coverage – This provides protection for your commercial vehicle when physical damage occurs. It also covers theft.
  • Motor Truck Cargo Insurance – This covers you from financial loss due to cargo damage. It protects your commodities.
  • Non-Trucking Coverage – You need to ensure that your truck(s) are protected, even when they aren’t hauling a load – for non-business purposes. Bobtail insurance and non-trucking liability coverage cover such costs that aren’t directly related to cargo transportation.
  • Uninsured/Underinsurance Motorists Coverage – If the person you are involved in an accident is either uninsured or underinsured, you could be left to cover out-of-pocket for resulting expenses. This coverage protects you in such an event.
Additionally, your commercial truck insurance costs will vary depending on various factors such as the goods carried, operating radius, vehicle type, the risks incurred, driving history or location.There are many more policy options you can opt for to protect your commercial trucking investment. As such, you need to work with a knowledgeable independent insurance broker who can get you the right insurance plan.
