Cargo Vans and Sprinters are used to haul all kinds of valuable cargo in the expediting trucking for hire niche.

What kind of insurance do I need to haul freight for hire in a Cargo Van or Sprinter?

Commercial Insurance in the Expediting niche of trucking is very industry standard at this point.  In other words, it’s hard to get a load if you can’t prove you have at least this coverage:

Primary Commercial Auto Liability$1,000,000 CSL
Cargo$100,000

Watch a short video to learn about the difference between primary commercial auto liability and general liability.

If the Owner Operator has leased on to a bigger Motor Carrier, then the Motor Carrier provides the Primary Commercial Auto Liability.  Per contract, the Owner Operator is still responsible for providing Non-Trucking Liability which means he’s insuring himself while not operating on behalf of the Motor Carrier.

Primary Commercial Auto Liability costs much more because it insures 24/7.

Non-Trucking Liability costs much less because it’s only part time coverage.
