Commercial Auto Liability protects you as a Freight Broker should you be held responsible for legal costs, medical bills or property damage caused by your contracted Motor Carrier.
Commercial General Liability insurance for Freight Brokers covers the aspects of your business that don’t involve trucks. Excess General Liability insurance is also available if you need additional coverage.
Professional Liability or E&O insurance for Freight Brokers protects you from claims of negligence. Excess E&O insurance is also available if you need additional coverage.
This is coverage that Freight Brokers can offer as a convenient value-add to their clients. This all-risk policy covers the value of the freight being shipped and the cost of shipping plus 10% (also known as CIF plus 10%). The freight broker holds the policy, but claims are paid directly to the shipper/client. This differs from regular Cargo Insurance, where the shipper holds the policy.
Freight Brokers contracting with Motor Carriers for land transportation must be bonded. We get you the best rate & automatically register your bond with the FMCSA.
