Amazon Relay Workers Comp requirement

With a ghost policy - what happens if you’re driving and get into an accident ?

Will you not be covered?

 

You have auto insurance, cargo insurance, trailer interchange and disability insurance for that! The ghost policy is for workers Comp only, but me personally I’d never file a claim against myself, but if you have 1099 contractors or W-2 employees I’d rather you have a full policy vs. a ghost policy. FYI- as a reference I was quoted between $1,000 and $1300 for a ghost policy. I was quoted $3,000 - $4,000 for a full work Comp policy on myself!

 

Do you know of a good workers comp for this ?

 

@rch10007 Thank you for putting together the information about Amazon and providing load photos. In this business, a carrier can operate with a shipper and do very well or it can't. Every truck business's running costs and breakeven points are different. Working with a carrier this year, I discovered MPG and labor costs largely determine if Amazon/ UPS Doubles/ Schnider can bring profit or loss in the fast freight space.

I want to ask about your experience getting verified with Realy. Did they call you to confirm your fmcsa information or simply use your RMIS profile? Did you write to the fmcsa asking to update your insurance displayed to 1Mil on the website?

Thanks
