Commercial Auto Insurance

Company vehicles, work trucks, and the hired or non-owned auto exposure that comes from employees driving their own car for work.

What it covers

  • Liability for injuries or property damage caused by a company vehicle
  • Physical damage to vehicles you own or lease
  • Medical payments for occupants after an accident
  • Hired and non-owned auto coverage, when added, for employees driving personal or rented vehicles for work
  • Uninsured and underinsured motorist protection

What it doesn't cover

  • Personal use of a company vehicle outside the policy's stated use, in some cases
  • An employee's personal auto policy gaps, unless hired/non-owned coverage is specifically added
  • Cargo or goods in transit, which may need separate inland marine coverage
  • Injuries to your own employees while driving (that falls under Workers' Comp)

Who needs this

Any business with vehicles titled in the company name, or whose employees regularly drive personal vehicles for work errands, deliveries, or client visits.

From our horror stories

The Errand That Wasn't Covered

An employee runs a supply-run in their own car and gets into a wreck. The business's commercial auto policy never covered vehicles it doesn't own.

Common questions

Commercial Auto FAQ

Do I need this if employees just use their own cars occasionally?

Yes, if it's for work purposes. A hired and non-owned auto endorsement covers exactly this situation and is inexpensive to add.

What's the difference between personal and commercial auto?

Personal auto policies typically exclude business use entirely. If a vehicle is used for deliveries, client visits, or hauling equipment, it needs commercial coverage.

Does this cover a work trailer?

Trailers usually need to be scheduled on the policy specifically. Let us know about any trailers so they're actually covered, not assumed.
