Types of Coverage We Offer
Our trucking insurance options can be mixed and matched depending on your business’s needs. Here’s what we can help you insure:
Commercial Auto Liability
Commercial auto liability insurance provides essential protection if one of your trucks causes an accident resulting in bodily injury or property damage. This coverage helps pay for medical expenses, repairs, legal fees, and settlements if your business is held responsible.
Physical Damage
Physical damage insurance protects your trucks from a wide range of unexpected events, including collisions, theft, fire, vandalism, and certain natural disasters. This coverage keeps your investment secure and helps you get your rigs repaired or replaced quickly so your business can stay on the road
Motor Truck Cargo Insurance
Motor truck cargo insurance protects the goods you haul while they’re in your care, custody, or control. If your cargo is damaged, stolen, or lost due to an accident or other covered event, this policy helps cover replacement costs and liability.
Trucker’s General Liability
Occupational accident insurance provides financial protection for drivers who are injured or killed while performing work-related duties. This coverage can help pay for medical expenses, disability benefits, and accidental death benefits, offering an alternative to traditional workers’ compensation for owner-operators.
Occupational Accident (Occ Acc)
Occupational accident insurance provides financial protection for drivers who are injured or killed while performing work-related duties. This coverage can help pay for medical expenses, disability benefits, and accidental death benefits, offering an alternative to traditional workers’ compensation for owner-operators.
Cross-Border Insurance
For trucking companies operating across national borders, cross-border or international coverage is essential. This type of insurance protects both your vehicle and your cargo during international trips, including routes into Mexico or other destinations.
Non-Trucking Liability
Non-trucking liability—often called bobtail insurance—provides protection when your truck is being used for personal or non-dispatch purposes. If an accident occurs while you’re off-duty or running without a trailer, this coverage helps pay for bodily injury and property damage.
Common Questions for Pharr Truckers
Learn more about commercial truck insurance.
- How Much Does Trucking Insurance Cost in Pharr?
Premiums depend on multiple factors, such as:
The size of your fleet
Whether your routes are local, interstate, or cross-border
Type of cargo (general freight, hazardous materials, refrigerated goods)
The condition and age of your trucks
Your safety record and claims history
Because we’re independent, our agents can pull quotes from many carriers, letting you compare side-by-side to find the most competitive rates for your Pharr-based operation.
- Will my personal car insurance cover my commercial trucks?
No. Personal auto policies generally do not cover commercial vehicles used for business. You need commercial trucking insurance to properly protect your trucks.
- Do I need all types of coverage?
Not necessarily—you choose what makes sense for your operation. But for legal compliance and risk management, most fleets carry a combination of liability, physical damage, and cargo coverage.
- Can SafeGuard help me secure a COI quickly?
Yes. We understand how important Certificates of Insurance are for securing loads. We’ll help process and generate COIs fast.
- I cross the U.S.–Mexico border. Do I need special coverage?
Yes. If your trucks regularly cross into Mexico (or other countries), cross-border insurance is essential. We can help you find the right policy for international operations.
- Does personal auto insurance cover commercial trucks?
No. Personal auto insurance does not provide coverage for commercial trucks or vehicles used for business purposes. To properly protect your equipment, cargo, and operations, you’ll need a specialized trucking insurance policy designed to cover commercial risks such as accidents, theft, and property damage.
- Compare Benefits and Discounts
Choosing the right policy is easier when you can compare multiple competitive quotes side by side. At SafeGuard, we leverage strong carrier relationships to secure lower rates and better discounts for our clients.
- How can I lower my trucking insurance premiums?
Improving driver safety, maintaining clean driving records, investing in newer or well-maintained trucks, and using onboard safety technology can all help reduce your insurance costs.
- Is towing included in my trucking insurance?
Some trucking insurance policies include towing and roadside assistance, but not all. Coverage varies by carrier and plan. If towing services are important for your business, our agents can ensure they’re included in your policy.
