Per Trip Excess Coverage

Purchasing per trip excess coverage should be easy.

Truck Writers offers self-service, single trip excess Liability and Cargo coverage to help those in the transportation industry 24/7/365.

How many times have you missed out on a load because your underlying policy coverages do not meet the Shipper’s Liability or Cargo requirements?

Through TripExcess, Truck Writers can offer A-rated, instant Liability and Cargo excess coverages per trip to motor carriers, Freight Brokers, and Freight Forwarders.

TripExcess offers up to $1,000,000 over the underlying Cargo coverage with the max underlying limit being $3,000,000. Liability is offered up to $2,000,000 over the underlying coverages with the max underlying limit being $10,000,000.

Getting a quote is as easy as entering the pick-up location, delivery location, and coverage information.

In the below example, a load required $2,000,000 in Liability and $500,000 in Cargo. The motor carrier already had $1,000,000 in Liability and $100,000 in Cargo (Retained Amounts). They quoted $1,000,000 Each Occurrence Limit for Liability and $400,000 Each Occurrence Limit for Cargo. For $295.09, they were able to book the load knowing they were covered.

A few additional pieces of information from the Bill of Lading will be required to buy the coverage.
