Typically the agent or representative will ask you a few questions. Some of these may include:
- What is the overall weight of your truck(s)?
- Where does your vehicle(s) usually go (local, interstate, international)?
- What is the standard cargo you transport (perishable, hazardous)?
- How many trucks do you have in your fleet that you need to insure?
- Are they assigned or do they have multiple drivers?
Most insurance companies can assist you with filing all your proper documents. This is with your local, state, and as required federal offices. Also they can file the appropriate forms with the FCMSA. If you need any additional assistance you can visit the FCMSA website or call them at (866)637-0635.
