    I'm looking at getting into car hauling with 9 car setup. What insurance coverage are brokers typically wanting on central dispatch? I was thinking 1 million liablity, 250k cargo, but wondered if the cargo might need to be higher? Appreciate any insight

    Anyone have any recommendations on insurance companies? My current provider is Progressive and apparently the max cargo insurance they will provide is 250k
