    100k cargo should be under 1k per year. 7-800 normally. Do not pay 5k for cargo insurance. Sounds like your insurance company is trying to stiff you.

    Cargo insurance is pretty cheap the liability is the expensive one.1$12000 to$15000 that someone posted on here it's hard for me to believe my liability,cargo and physical damage doesn't add up to that much a year

    My 100k Cargo with $2500 deductable is $1200 with progressive. This is my first year. But I recently heard progressive isn't taking new authorities anymore, not sure if that's true or not.

    First year authority(2016). Need to have insurance in place before authority will be granted. $100,000 cargo was $1,500.00, and my liability was $4500.00. One truck, 2 trailers, full 48 state operating authority. My insurance company filed BOC-3 for me($40). I did my authority myself.
     
    SoDel Thanks this.

    Spoke with Progressive today about insurance, they gave me a quote but also stated that do to a new policy on new authorities, they may cancel it when the dot #s go through the computer. Was for the most part pleased with their quote, but may be unreachable.....
