Insurance Issue, Need Help ASAP!

Why do you guys think I won't get my authority, I am working under someone else's with so my insurance is cheaper.

This is not because of deregulation but because we have too many poor drivers out there causing more problems for us with a revolving door of employment. You can think it is just these large mega companies but it isn't, a lot of smaller carriers hire poor drivers because they already play high rates, so it doesn't matter.

I have a process for hiring, it is a pain in the butt to go through. It includes more than just an MVR and superficial background check but then I don't want to hand over my property to anyone with a CDL and want to lessen the liability.

 

Sorry, Insurance companies can do as they please, just like you can refuse any load you want.There are way to many trucks out here running with little oversight and everyone gets lumped together.

 

Emco, what ended il happening? Were you able to find someone to add more trucks? I am in a similar position insurance won't let me add more than 3 trucks. Looking forward to your update. Thank you.

 

I am going thru a renewal right now, majority of companies still won't touch me, because I am only a year old.
What surprised me, is that Northland, one of the most popular companies, had refused me, because my trucks are older, than 2006. If other insurance companies will start refusing coverage, because of older trucks, it's gonna be messed up for a lot of people

 

Count on it.

 

Thanks Emco, which insurance company was it? If you don't mind me asking. Thanks.

 

Emco, did you look into buying someone's else authority, which is few years old?

 

How much was your first year's premium?

 

14k, truck at 15k and trailer at 30
