How are Insurance Rates Determined for Truckers?

Trucking insurance policies depend on several rating factors, including:
-
USDOT authority
-
Coverage requirements
-
Vehicle type
-
Cargo
-
Operating Radius
-
Driving history
Most common discount factors include being an experienced business (over 3 years) or having a CDL (Commercial Drivers License).

Non Trucking Liability
Trucking companies are often internally targeted by family and employee members to gain access to trucks for personal use. As common as this is, insurance is usually the biggest risk in the scenario. When an insurance agent is assigning coverage to a commercial trucking policy they need to know if the truck will ever be used for personal use. Commercial trucks are covered for business related operations, getting in an accident outside of those operations could leave you liable for the costs. Talk to your agent about a Non Trucking Liability policy to add on and secure extra property or third party liability coverage for your vehicle.
Colorado Specific Trucking Markets
If you own a trucking company that operates mostly or exclusively in Colorado you may qualify for our Colorado insurance markets that work to serve trucking companies. Living and working in Colorado brings unique hazards to truckers specifically. The weather can turn on commuters in a heartbeat, the elevation can wreak havoc on engines, and don’t forget the extra strains from mountain landscapes.
Colorado insurance brokers like Alliance will know exactly where to start to make sure your coverage matches your risks. Don’t settle for a cookie-cutter direct policy. Have an Alliance expert tailor your policy for your business.
