Insurance for freight brokers and logistics.
Brokers and logistics companies do not own the trucks, but they carry real exposure: errors in arranging transport, contingent cargo, and the contract and certificate requirements of shippers and carriers.

Broker liability and E&O
A broker's exposure is in arranging transport: a mistake, a misrouted or damaged load, a carrier vetting failure. Errors and omissions or contingent liability coverage responds to that professional exposure, which general liability alone does not. This is the core coverage for a broker.
Contingent cargo
When a contracted carrier's cargo coverage fails to pay, contingent cargo can step in to protect the broker and the shipper relationship. It is not a substitute for the carrier's coverage, but it backstops the gap. We confirm the terms and limits fit your freight.
Authority, bond, and contracts
Freight brokers face specific FMCSA authority requirements, including a surety bond or trust (commonly the BMC-84 or BMC-85) and process-agent filing, and their contracts with shippers and carriers drive certificate and insurance requirements. We line up the coverage and verify the authority side with the FMCSA.
