I've been calling every insurance company and brokerage in Ontario today trying to get insurance and here I am still with no insurance. Every broker I spoke to said that they require me to be on someone else's policy for 3 years before I can get my own. But that's not an option for me. So I am hoping someone went through this and perhaps has an answer for me. Where can I insure my truck and get it on the road without prior experience?
I have a 2007 Hino straight truck that can be driven with a G license. But it is considered a heavy vehicle because it is 6,314 kilograms.
Any ideas?
Insurance for a driver with no experience.

The rule is you have to be hauling "your agricultural products" to a buyer directly from "your farm ".
Many guys around here run that to haul logs, grain, etc.
When I looked into it, the difference in cost per year was 24k for commercial insurance, 2500 a year for ag insurance.
Figure out how to make the rules work in your favor, instead of working against them.
Now, obviously, I'm not about to tell you to do something illegal or underhanded.
That would be rude of me.
What I am saying is, learn the rules, and figure out how to make them work for you. -
