Common questions
How much cargo coverage does a car hauler need?
Add up the most valuable full load you carry. Many auto haulers need $250,000 or more, especially with newer or luxury vehicles.
Does cargo cover damage during loading?
Many car hauler cargo policies do, but some limit it. Confirm the loading and unloading wording before you bind.
