Why Freight Broker Insurance Is Essential

Freight broker insurance is a vital safety net for businesses that facilitate the transportation of goods. As an intermediary between shippers and carriers, freight brokers take on a unique set of risks, including liability for delays, accidents, or lost goods. Without the right coverage, brokers could face significant financial exposure, putting their business and reputation at risk.

Having the proper freight broker insurance helps mitigate these risks by ensuring you’re protected from claims related to negligence, errors, and omissions, and other unforeseen challenges that can arise in the course of your operations. With insurance from The Truck Experts, you can focus on growing your business while we handle the risks that come with the job.

Contingent Cargo Insurance
Contingent Cargo Insurance ensures that your business is protected in case a carrier’s insurance falls short or doesn’t cover the full extent of cargo damage or loss. This coverage guarantees that you can meet your obligations to shippers, providing financial protection when unforeseen events occur.

General Liability Insurance
Umbrella Liability Coverage goes even further, not only increasing the limits of your existing policies but also filling coverage gaps by protecting against certain risks that your primary policies may not cover. This includes coverage for General Liability, Auto Liability, Employers Liability, and more, acting as a safeguard to ensure you're fully covered against a broad range of liabilities.
Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance
Errors and Omissions Insurance (also known as Professional Liability Insurance) is designed specifically for the risks freight brokers face. This coverage protects your business against claims of negligence, mistakes, or omissions in your professional services—such as incorrect shipment documentation, failing to vet carriers properly, or disputes over contracts.
Surety Bonds
Surety Bonds are a legal requirement for freight brokers and provide financial protection to shippers and carriers in the event of non-payment or breach of contract. These bonds serve as a guarantee that you will meet your financial obligations and adhere to industry regulations.
