Insurance is one of your biggest operating expenses. Here are proven strategies to lower your premiums:

• Shop with an Independent Agent: The most effective way to save is choice. Unlike captive agents, Colucci Insurance shops your policy with dozens of providers to force them to compete for your business.

• Hire Experienced Drivers: Insurance carriers reward businesses that hire drivers with clean CDL records and experience. A seasoned driver is a lower risk.

• Pay in Full: If your cash flow allows, paying your policy in full rather than monthly can often save you 10-15% instantly.

• Use Telematics & Dash Cams: Many insurers now offer discounts for fleets that install dash cams or use ELDs to monitor driving habits, as this significantly reduces the risk of fraudulent claims.

• Check Your CAB Scores: Keep your maintenance scores high and your out-of-service violations low. Your safety rating directly impacts your insurance rate.

Costs vary based on cargo, radius, and driving history. However, based on our market data typical rates for experience truckers with prior coverage, clean loss runs & mvr, good credit and cab scores (FMCSA):
