Trailer Interchange
Covers non-owned trailers under an interchange agreement. Pick per-trailer limits; add non-owned trailer physical damage if needed.
Excess / Umbrella
Adds $1M–$5M+ over Auto Liability, CGL, and (where eligible) Employers Liability to meet shipper/landlord contract requirements.
New York Minimum Insurance Requirements (Intrastate)
New York intrastate CMVs must maintain proof of public liability on file with the state (Form E) and comply with NYDOT/NYCRR safety rules. Minimum liability depends on vehicle weight class and commodity; most for-hire property carriers carry at least $750,000 CSL, with higher limits for certain hazmat classes. We’ll confirm the exact requirement for your authority, weight class, and cargo during quoting and file Form E for you.
GVWR 10,001–26,000 lbs
Minimum: $300,000 CSL
GVWR ≥ 26,001 lbs
Minimum: $750,000 CSL
Note: Federal filings still apply to interstate carriers and certain hazmat classes. We’ll help you determine what applies to your operation.
