4 Questions to Ask the Trucking Insurance Company

  1. Does your cargo coverage allow for multiple Bill of Ladings on the same trailer? If you are going to be hauling multiple loads on a single trip your policy will need to cover each load for $100,000. Look for a policy that allows up to 5 BOLs per trip if you will be hauling from multiple shippers at one time.
  2. Is your policy flexible to add extra insurance, on a trip by trip basis? You may come across lucrative loads that you aren’t covered to haul, or you may need to temporarily extend your radius of operation.
  3. How fast can you get me insurance certs? Shippers and load brokers will not wait very long. You will lose the load and money if you have a non responsive agent that can’t get you your proof of insurance certificates in a quick manner.
  4. Can I see your truck insurance application? Sometimes agents cut corners and may rate you at a radius of 300 miles when you really travel up to 800 miles. Make sure your application reflects the loads you carry and how far you travel. The insurance company may dispute a claim if you are from Texas with a 300 mile radius of operation and get into an accident in California or Florida!

Coverages You Need as Hot Shot Trucking Company

A boilerplate Hot Shot Insurance policy includes:

  • Liability Insurance
  • Physical Damage Coverage
  • Cargo Insurance

These three types of coverages protect against damage done to other people’s property, other drivers, your vehicle, and your cargo. While liability and cargo coverages are the only ones required by law, all physical damage is also needed to protect you from potential financial hardship. You also need the proper limits. Most companies won’t hire you on unless you carry $1,000,000 in liability and $100,000 in cargo.

Most hotshots are running 1-ton pick ups with gooseneck trailers or upgraded disk brakes. Some hotshots use semis. If you use a Semi you probably will need bobtail and NTL.
