Protecting Your Cargo Parked, In Transport, Or Whenever You Need It

cargo insurance coverage for truckers

Motor truck cargo insurance is a specialized type of coverage that is important for any business that transports goods by trailer. This type of policy provides protection if the cargo is damaged in a collision or overturns. It does not provide protection for the motor vehicle itself, that would be covered under commercial auto liability insurance.


A standard policy stipulates that a motor carrier should have a minimum of $750,000-$1,000,000 in cargo insurance. If you are transporting high-value goods it is very important to make sure your policy will cover these types of losses.

What Does Cargo Insurance Cover?

In the event that a loss is incurred, cargo insurance can help with: 

-Liability coverage for damage to other people's property.  -Repair or replacement expense of damaged goods (with loss payable clause).  -Loss proceeds if your goods are completely lost.

-Replacement cost of perishable items.

-Storage and freight charges.


It is important to have a good understanding of what your policy covers before an incident occurs.
