    Any one here have a recommendation for car hauling insurance provider? 5 car enclosed wanting to haul between Canada and the US. 8 years experience hauling cars. No damage ever. No claims. Truck is 13 years old with 600,000km on it.
    I have been quoted close to $50,000, of which 13,700 was just for a garage policy??
    My broker tells me only Nordic will cover anyone for the US hauls.
    Was I dreaming when I hoped to get a policy for closer to $20,000?

    Thank you for your help!
    Located in Alberta. I am 50 years old, fit, healthy, and experienced at this. No violations or claims.
    Canada to US. It's the US travel that makes this expensive and complicated.

    Its really hard to get insurance for car carries in Ontario. If u didnt have a fleet u need to pay $40k in one shot per truck, unless u have 10 trucks its going to be around $17k to $18k a year which is about $15k a month. They just making it harder every year to independent broker to run their own authorities
     
    Tron Thanks this.
