COMMERCIAL AUTO INSURANCE

Protect the Vehicles That Keep Your Business Moving.

From a single work truck to a fleet of delivery vans, your coverage should reflect who’s driving, what they carry, and where the work takes them. Cook Insurance compares commercial auto options from multiple insurance companies and explains what each policy covers, how much it will pay, and what you would pay toward a claim—so you can make an informed choice for your business.
COVERAGE FOR BUSINESS ON THE ROAD

Business Vehicles Need Protection Built for Business Use.

An accident can leave your business facing more than a damaged vehicle. Injuries, damage to someone else’s property, and a vehicle out of service can all affect your operations. The coverages below address different parts of that risk, with limits and deductibles that deserve careful consideration.
/01

Liability Protection

An accident involving your business can lead to costly injury or property damage claims. Liability coverage addresses covered claims for which your business or an insured driver is legally responsible.

/02

Collision Coverage

Repairing a work vehicle after a crash can put pressure on your budget. Collision coverage helps pay for covered damage to an insured vehicle, minus your deductible—the amount you pay toward the claim.

/03

Comprehensive Coverage

Theft, hail, vandalism, and fire can damage a vehicle even when it’s parked. Comprehensive coverage addresses these and other covered losses outside of a collision. Your deductible applies.

/04

Uninsured & Underinsured Motorist Coverage

The driver who causes an accident may have little or no insurance. This coverage can help with covered injury expenses for you and your passengers, with protections that vary by state and policy.

BUILT AROUND HOW YOU DRIVE

Does Your Coverage Match How You Use Your Vehicles?

A vehicle used occasionally for meetings presents different risks from a work truck traveling between job sites every day. A change in how a vehicle is used deserves a coverage review, even if the vehicle itself hasn’t changed.

Your Vehicle Risks Can Grow Alongside Your Business.

Adding vehicles, hiring drivers, expanding service areas, or changing how your vehicles are used can affect your insurance needs. A regular review can help ensure your coverage keeps pace with your operations.
You’ve Added Vehicles
Purchasing or leasing additional vehicles can change both the value you need to protect and your overall road exposure.
1
You Have New Drivers
Employees who begin driving for the business introduce additional risks that should be reflected in your coverage.
2
Your Service Area Has Expanded
Longer routes or travel into new areas can change how frequently and where your vehicles are being used.
3
Employees Use Vehicles for Business
If employees use personal, rented, or other vehicles for business activities, those situations may create insurance considerations worth reviewing.

The Right Coverage Starts With Understanding Your Needs.

Every situation is different. We take the time to understand what you’re protecting, review your current coverage, and help identify potential gaps so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

It’s insurance for vehicles used in your business, such as work trucks, service vans, and company cars. A policy can combine liability protection for covered claims against your business with coverage for damage to insured vehicles. The protections included depend on the policy you choose.
A personal auto policy may allow some business use, but it can limit or exclude activities such as deliveries or hauling equipment. Commercial auto is designed around business driving and may offer limits and protections your personal policy doesn’t. The right policy depends on the vehicle’s ownership, its drivers, and the work it’s used for.
Yes, even one vehicle may need commercial auto insurance. A truck used to haul equipment or a car used for deliveries can create risks that a personal policy doesn’t cover. How you use that vehicle matters more than how many vehicles your business owns.
Sending an employee to pick up supplies or visit a client in their own car can expose your business to an accident claim. Their personal auto insurance may not fully protect your company. Non-owned auto liability coverage—protection for your business when employees use their own vehicles for work—can help address that risk, but generally doesn’t pay for damage to the employee’s vehicle.
Review your policy at renewal and before adding or replacing vehicles, assigning new drivers, expanding your routes, or changing how vehicles are used. To request a review with Cook Insurance, bring your current policy and planned changes early so we can discuss coverage options before the work begins.
