Lease Operators (Leased to a Carrier)

You haul under another company's authority. You'll need non-trucking liability, physical damage, and possibly occ-acc coverage.

2

Independent Owner-Operators (Own Authority)

You have your own MC number. You need full primary liability, cargo, and physical damage coverage to operate legally.

3

New Authority (Under 1 Year)

Just got your authority? We specialize in placing new truckers who often struggle to find coverage with standard carriers.

4

Owner-Ops with Violations or Accidents

Non-standard markets available. Our agents can shop carriers who specialize in higher-risk trucking risks.

What Affects Your Premium

Owner-operator insurance costs vary widely. Here's what carriers look at when pricing your policy.

πŸ“

Operating Radius

Local, regional, and long-haul operations carry different risk profiles. Longer hauls = broader exposure.

🚚

Vehicle Value & Age

Newer, higher-value trucks cost more to insure for physical damage but may qualify for better rates on liability.

πŸ“‹

Driving Record (MVR)

Your Motor Vehicle Record is one of the first things a carrier pulls. Clean records earn the best rates.

πŸ“¦

Cargo Type

Hazmat, high-value, or perishable cargo significantly increases premiums compared to general dry freight.

πŸ“…

Years in Business

Carriers reward experience. New authorities typically pay more until they build a clean claims history.

βš–οΈ

Coverage Limits

Higher liability limits and lower deductibles increase premiums. Our agents help you find the right balance.

πŸ“Š

Claims History

Prior claims are reviewed for the last 3–5 years. A clean history can unlock preferred carrier pricing.

πŸ—ΊοΈ

States of Operation

Some states have higher minimum requirements and tort environments that impact your overall premium.
