Motor Truck Cargo Insurance

Motor Truck Cargo Insurance

Motor Truck Cargo insurance provides insurance on the freight or commodity hauled by a For-hire trucker.  It covers your liability or cargo that is lost or damaged due to causes such as fire, collision or striking of a load.  It pays when you are responsible for damage to or loss of the cargo due to fire, collision or even hitting or running over the cargo that you transport on behalf of a client.

Coverage Options: 

When you select Motor Truck Cargo insurance, you have to select a limit for your coverage.  This limit determines the maximum amount your insurance company will pay for damaged or destroyed cargo.  You also need to choose a deductible.  A deductible is the amount you agree to pay out of picket when you have a claim.  Choosing a higher deductible is an easy way to lower the price of your insurance, but be sure you choose a deductible that you can afford to pay out of pocket at any time.
