Insurance

Depends on where you are, and whether it's a new authority or not.

In CA, for a new entrant DOT#, we'd charge $ 25,000 - 30,000 depending on mvr for full coverage. Down payment for finance company would be 20-25%.....or $ 6,000 - 7,500.

 

Seems high to me. How much is the lump sum for the year?

 

Given our rate structure in Texas I'd say it's in line with what we do in CA

 

I had to pay about 20% last year as a down payment and that was a total of 3200. In Georgia. I was told GA has extremely high rates. Hope this helps.

 

Depends on a lot of things. Sounds super cheap to me but down payment means nothing. What's the full quote for a year? Where are you? What year/model equipment are you running?

 

I’m with progressive and all I had to do was pay the first month when I started

 

I’m new and shopping around for insurance. I got a quote that nearly made me pass out. 100k for the year!!
I’ve had two accidents in the past before I got my cdl. It seems insanely high though.

If anyone can share some insight I would appreciate it. And yes it’s 100 thousand dollars for my first year.

I’m based on Florida and California

 

That's insane. I believe somebody screwed up somewhere. How many trucks do you have?
