Restaurant commercial auto insurance.
If your restaurant owns delivery or catering vehicles, or your staff drive for the business, personal auto policies generally will not respond. Commercial auto and hired and non-owned auto fill that gap.

Owned vehicles
Delivery vans, catering vehicles, and food trucks the business owns need commercial auto coverage for liability and physical damage. A personal auto policy generally will not cover a vehicle used in the business, which is a common and serious gap.
The delivery driver gap
When employees use their own cars to deliver, the personal auto policy generally excludes business use, and the liability can fall to your business. Hired and non-owned auto coverage is designed to address that exposure, which matters most for pizza, delivery, and catering operations.
Matching coverage to how you drive
The right auto program depends on whether you own vehicles, use staff drivers, rent occasionally, or rely on apps. We sort out which exposures you actually have so the coverage fits the operation and the contracts.
Restaurant vehicles are almost always light: a catering van, a supply-run pickup, a car titled to the business. What decides a claim on one of those is the numbered symbol printed beside each coverage on the declarations page, and that is worked through on commercial auto for cars and light trucks. If you are not sure which fork applies, the commercial auto page sorts it by weight rating first.
