FAQ
What are the main factors driving my premium?
Insurance companies base your premium on several factors including your age, driving record, radius of operation, years of verifiable experience, what you are hauling, age of equipment, your previous claims experience, and CVOR (Ontario) to name a few.
With so many variables and so many insurance companies rating individual operations differently, it’s important to find the best priced policy and needed coverages for you. And if your operation extends across borders to the United States of America, have the correct fillings done if required.
How is my cargo covered?
Different types of cargo—grain, lumber, dairy, produce, steel, hazmat, sand and gravel, etc. —each possess different risks. Your transportation insurance broker should understand exactly what you are hauling and offer a broad form Motor Truck Cargo to cover you when necessary.
If you don’t have a broad form cargo policy, you should know exactly what loss scenarios are not covered.
Do I need special insurance for refrigerated goods?
Yes. It’s a rider we add to your Motor Truck Cargo Coverage called Reefer Breakdown.
Reefer Breakdown coverage is also required if you are transporting fresh food, meats, dairy, etc. with a refrigerated truck and/or trailer.
How does my CVOR affect my insurance premium?
Right now, CVORs are an integral part of your fleet business in Ontario.
Having a broker that understands the ins and outs of your CVOR and is able to help best place your coverage to have the policy suited for your needs can be a game changer. Our team of experts has the experience to understand your business and connect you with the industry partners that can help get you organized and on the road.
