Independent insurance Cost for new carriers

You can save a small fortune by eliminating the "gas" you won't be using any. ☺
But seriously will you still be going forward with this venture with insurance premiums like that? You could hire a driver with a better record and save a fortune. But your health insurance premiums were reasonable , who is that through?

 

You need to call Progressive and talk to them about why they gave you a "Oh, HECK NO" quote. I got a quote on a NEW driver from them five months ago, and it was under 12 K.

There's something they looked at they don't like. Better figure out what it is. Is your credit lousy? Criminal record? Fraud convictions?

 

Wow I pay 750 a month, with 250 cargo. Of course I've been at it for 10 years with no claims. So it get better.

 

With cargo liability physical you should be paying max 12-14 with a clean record 15-18 with dirt on it. 5k is insane. Did you go through a insurance broker? If so then you're probably paying 1500 for insurance and rest brokers bills lol.

 

Hey brotha, I'm really hoping you get those rates down, that ish is crazy. You'd probably do better leasing onto a company with those rates.

Anyway what kind of freight are you pulling? Are you using all of your family's contracts or will be doing your own thing. $2.00+ a mile is awesome for a first year out. Mind if I PM you and ask you some questions?

 

cargo and liability for me as new entrant back in January $6300 a year $515 a month with great west you should call them.
