    My renewal is just around the corner--- February.

    I already got my quote for the new year today.
    It's my third year next year.

    1st year--from 22K (adjusted to $19,500 after tweaks to the insurance the same year)
    2nd year-- $13,000, and

    NOW (Can you hand me the envelope please?)




    It is $10,500.

    I own Kenworth T660 2010, and I own Great Dane Trailer Reefer 2013.

    Is it too much for the third year? Should I get quotes? I have Progressive now.

    Also, did you raise the value of your equipment? The prices went up, so I am not sure if I should give more value to the equipment I own? I don't know how much it would raise it. But if something was about to happen to the equipment I own, I won't be able to buy similar for the value that's listed on insurance. Prices are like double now?

    That's a fair price. It's seems this year all renewals went up.
    That's only about $800 a month.

    It's not bad but I would get your loss/run reports from Progressive and shop around. I ended up with Great West because I got the same coverage for less money and added stuff that I had to pay extra for with Progressive. GW also doesn't charge me money if I have to add an additional insured like Progressive did.

    Did you increase the value on your equipment?

    Congrats. Sounds like it’s going in the right direction! I doubt you’ll ever get under $7500 but 10k ain’t far off considering your still young as a company.
