Insurance for new owner operator in Ontario

Exactly, the Insurance Broker told me on Friday I might be able to get one of the Insurance companies he contacted but they call all the shots. For example: They want $25,000/year but I have to pay ALL upfront, I haven't a choice, their rules etc. I assumed this from the start of August when my truck was going to be delivered. Either way, I had a list of Carriers who wanted to hire me based on my experience. I figure in a year the red tape will disappear which is cool regardless plus these Insurance brokers told me that it will significantly go down around 75% to 80% driving my truck under a mid to larger carrier once everything stays good. Considering the overall market it's probably a good situation.

 

Good luck making money in that insurance situation - you're going to need it.....

 

It's all a bunch of smoke. A new Canadian can get a truck and insurance through day & ross or transx without a problem. This country is a joke.

 

It was supposed to prevent flipfloppers with zero experience but with tons of cash from buying brand new trucks and working for peanuts. I personally know a guy who came here and bough a brand new 760 for cash. How many of us can do that ?
