Don’t take my word for it read customer reviews on my Google My Business Profile. Also to see my trustworthiness view my A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

I don’t just offer generic policies; I tailor our coverages to the specific vehicle you operate. As an independent agent, I shop multiple top-rated carriers to find you the best rates for your specific rig on regular routes to Miami and Hialeah or beyond.

We can secure coverage that protects your vehicle against tip-overs, collisions, and liability claims specific to the sand and gravel industry.

I understand the urgency of your business and can quickly secure the necessary filings (such as the 91X) to get your hot shot rig on the road immediately.

• Primary Auto Liability: Federally mandated coverage protecting third parties from bodily injury and property damage resulting from your rig. Essential for maintaining active FMCSA operating authority (USDOT/MC), standard policies fulfill Florida state statutory minimums and support $750,000 to $1,000,000+ broker requirement limits.

• Cargo Insurance: This protects the specific freight you transport. If the goods you are hauling are damaged, lost, or stolen during transit, cargo coverage prevents you from facing direct financial claims from shippers or brokers. Refer to my dedicated cargo insurance page for addtional information.

• Trailer Interchange Coverage: Physical damage protection (collision, fire, theft) for non-owned trailers hauled under dispatch. A signed, active interchange agreement (such as a UIIA or bilateral carrier contract) is required to activate coverage for intermodal or third-party equipment.

• Non-Owned Trailer Physical Damage: Covers trailers you haul but do not own without requiring a signed interchange agreement—ideal for power-only operators.

  • Note: Typically covers trailers only while attached to your tractor. Motor carriers handling both UIIA interchanges and unagreements/rented trailers often carry both Trailer Interchange and Non-Owned Trailer policies for seamless coverage.

• Personal Injury Protection (PIP / No-Fault): Florida mandates $10,000 in PIP to cover immediate medical bills and lost wages regardless of fault. Benefits cover 80% of medical costs (capped at $2,500 without an Emergency Medical Condition diagnosis) and 60% of lost income. Commercial carriers can opt for a wage loss exclusion to reduce premiums if drivers carry Workers’ Compensation.

• Medical Payments Coverage (MedPay): Optional coverage that acts as excess over PIP. MedPay covers the remaining 20% out-of-pocket medical bills, copays, and expenses exceeding PIP limits for drivers and passengers. Commercial limits range from $1,000 to $10,000+ per person without PIP’s lost-wage constraints.

• Uninsured / Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM): Protects driver medical bills, lost wages, and injury claims if hit by an uninsured or underinsured motorist. Florida requires carriers to complete a signed selection/rejection form; non-stacked options provide cost-effective interstate protection.

• Non-Trucking Liability (NTL) vs. Bobtail Insurance: Gap liability protection for leased owner-operators operating off primary carrier dispatch.

  • NTL: Triggered by intent—covers personal, non-business tractor use while completely off-dispatch.

  • Bobtail: Triggered by equipment—covers liability when driving a tractor without a trailer attached, regardless of dispatch status.

• Hired & Non-Owned Auto (HNOA): Protects your business against liability claims involving vehicles you do not own. Hired Auto covers rented or borrowed power units; Non-Owned Auto covers liability when employees or subhaulers use personal vehicles for company business (errands, parts runs).

Finding Low Cost Commercial Truck Insurance is easier when you know what insurers look for. Here are effective ways to reduce your premiums:

• Shop Around (Use an Independent Agent): The #1 way to save is by letting me shop multiple companies for you. I work for you, not the insurance company.

• Monitor Your CAB Scores & CSA Compliance: A significant portion of your rate is based on your CAB scores as well as CSA compliance. Keep your maintenance records current and be highly selective about who you lease your authority to.

• Install a Dash Cam: Many carriers now offer discounts or even require dash cams, as they significantly reduce the chance of frivolous claims against you.

• Regular Vehicle Maintenance: Well-maintained vehicles signal lower risk to insurance companies, often leading to better rates in Pembroke Pines.
