Commercial Auto Insurance Coverages

What Commercial Coverages do you need?

It is important to keep in mind legal requirements when obtaining trucking insurance. Commercial Truck Insurance is mandatory in all 50 states and failure to obtain coverage could cost you a lot of money in fines or even worse, your license. By law, you must have $300,000+ in auto liability and cargo coverage (which depends on what you are hauling). 

Recommended and Required Minimum Coverages

Below are some of the minimum coverage requirements and recommendations, however, we recommend talking to one of our Commercial Insurance Specialists to get specific recommendations on the coverage you need based on what you are hauling.

Liability Coverage
1 K+

Auto Liability, also known as Bodily Injury Physical Damage (BIPD), depends on the overall gross-vehicle weight (GVW) when hauling.

Under 10,001 lbs GVW = $300,000 while over 10,001 lbs GVW = $750,000

1K-200K

Physical Damage Coverage

Physical Damage is not required for Commercial Vehicle Insurance, but we do recommend it. Coverage depends on what you are driving and can range from $1000 to $200K.

Cargo Coverage
1 K+

Cargo Coverage is required by law, however the amount of coverage depends on what your trucks are hauling. Call one of our Insurance Specialists for a recommendation on minimum cargo coverage.

Company A, a 9-truck carrier, approached CNS due to a problem in their operations. Their surplus lines carrier who was charging $190,000 annually for 9 trucks was canceling their liability insurance. The trucking company called CNS to see what could be done.

CNS reviewed carrier’s roadside safety, performance, driver files, loss ratio history, systems, and process. CNS analyzed the company had no losses but high BASIC SMS scores. Upon further investigation there were only two drivers that had bad records.

CNS developed hiring and qualification standards and implemented these standards within the company. The company also engaged CNS to manage their divers through drivers qualifications, monitoring drivers and training drivers.
