Why Insure Your Truck?
Liability Coverage:
This allows you to be covered in case of an accident which results in injury or damage to third-party property.
Fire, Theft, and Collision:
This can provide cover in case damages arise to your truck as a result of fire, theft or a collision
Marine Transit:
This allows coverage for the cargo which is carried by your truck, potentially protecting you against financial losses as a result of damage or loss of the cargo.
Downtime Cover:
This covers your down time in case your truck is damaged, allowing you to receive replacement income whilst your truck is being repaired.
Other:
While no one likes to think about the possibility of experiencing a loss, it’s important to be prepared in the event that something does happen. That’s why commercial property insurance is such an important safeguard for any business owner. Don’t wait until it’s too late to get the coverage you need – give us a call today to learn more about our commercial property insurance options.
Truck Insurance claim example
Mustafa is an owner driver with a prime mover he uses for interstate haulage. His main contractor requires him to have a Certificate of Currency showing coverage for his vehicle, the trailer he is towing, the goods he is carrying, and his public liability. Mustafa also elects to take cover for “downtime” to give him replacement income if his truck is damaged.
Because Mustafa takes all these covers under a single Heavy Motor Insurance package, he only has to pay a single excess when an accident causes his trailer to overturn as well as damaging his own truck. Mustafa’s insurer pays the cost of repairs for his truck, the trailer, Mustafa’s lost income while it is repaired, and his client’s goods that he was carrying.

Words can not explain or express my greatest appreciation for Alison's dedication to reducing our insurances by 10k. Alison's assistance and experience in the industry is outstanding. Ali put in a fair few dedicated … More days(weeks) into understanding our businesses and sending out hundreds of quotes, and then consolidating all the information. I was speechless when she gave me the insurance figures for 5 restaurant's, we even went through them 3 times to ensure we hadn't missed anything when compared to the previous insurances we had. The monthly amount we have to pay is minimal compared to what we had been paying. I still don't believe it.I would recommend you, Alison and your company to anybody who had the inclination to listen to me. I am extremely happy and still in shock days later.Merry Christmas Ali, I hope you get something extra special in your Christmas stocking this year from the Boss. Look forward to working with you again in the new year.
