What does truckers general liability cover?

Injury and property damage from operations not covered by auto liability, such as loading, unloading, premises, and completed operations. It complements auto liability.

Do I need general liability for trucking?

Often, especially when shippers, brokers, or facilities require it, and to cover loading, unloading, and premises exposure. We confirm it fits your operation.

Isn't my auto liability enough?

Auto liability covers the truck on the road, not loading, premises, or operations off the wheel. General liability addresses those. We make sure there is no gap.

Truckers General Liability - Vantage Point Risk

Truckers general liability covers bodily injury and property damage from your operations that are not covered by auto liability, such as loading and unloading, premises, and completed-operations exposure. Shippers, brokers, and facilities often require it.

Beyond the wheel

Auto liability covers the truck in motion, but a lot of trucking risk happens off the wheel: loading and unloading, working at a dock or jobsite, premises exposure at your yard. Truckers general liability responds to those, which auto liability generally does not.

Where it is required

Shippers, brokers, distribution centers, and facilities frequently require general liability at a stated limit, often with additional insured status, before they let you on site or haul their freight. We line the coverage up with those requirements.

How it fits the program

General liability sits alongside auto liability and cargo, and the line between what each covers, especially around loading and unloading, matters at claim time. We make sure the coverages work together without a gap.
