Congratulations on your move to interstate trucking! You’ll be glad to know that most of your insurance coverage needs won’t change. The big thing you need to do is to make sure that you meet the insurance requirements for the filings you need to complete for interstate hauling, like your MC number, IRP, or IFTA registration. Some of these filings require a certain level of coverage. Of course, we’ll help you get everything you need to operate across state lines!

Our team has plenty of experience helping companies with all sorts of budget constraints maintain compliance. We know all the ins and outs of the law and how to make sure your company never falls out of favor. And we have a few tricks up our sleeves to keep your costs low. So get in touch today and see what we can do for you!

Every commercial trucking industry requires you to have liability insurance, but beyond that, your exact requirements will depend on your industry and what you haul. We strongly recommend all truckers at least consider the following:

— Underinsured and uninsured motorist coverage
— Physical Damage Coverage
— Trailer interchange coverage
— Primary liability coverage
— Primary liability and truckers’ general liability coverage
— Non-trucking liability coverage
— Medical reimbursement coverage

While our agents are insurance experts, we have affiliated companies that deal with all sorts of filing and permitting concerns! Ask your agent to redirect you to one of our affiliates at DOT Operating Authority for any filing concerns you have, or get your trip and fuel tax permits, IRP, or IFTA registrations!

Of course! Our team takes pride in providing necessary insurance coverage for anyone and everyone. No matter what your driving record looks like, our team will hook you up!

Note: even if you have a DUI, we may be able to get you the coverage you need to get back on the road. Contact us to see if we can help you!

Unidentified trailer coverage covers any trailer that you hook up to your truck that isn’t owned or leased by you. If you don’t have this coverage, these trailers could put you at risk.

Each insurance company has different rules about it, but claims tend to stay on your record for three years.

All you have to do is reach out to your Fontana Truck Insurance agent and let them know what you’re doing. We’ll make sure your truck has the coverage it needs!

Motor truck cargo policies can be really different across companies because every company has a different way of calculating your costs. They base your premiums on the type of cargo you haul and the circumstances you need covered, and each company weighs these risks differently. For these policies, it’s important to know all the specifics of an individual policy before signing on for it.

Yes! Just notify us with your new address and we’ll make sure to keep you and your truck completely covered. While we may have to change some of the language of your policy (depending on where you’re going), we’ll talk you through that before you go!

Yes, but only for accidents. If an accident happens, please call your agent so they can send someone out for you! If your truck breaks down due to a mechanical failure, however, you’ll have to find a local tow company to help you out. It pays to stay on top of your maintenance!

Any of our agents would be happy to talk you through any further questions and concerns you may have! You can call our office at (510) 473-3649, email our customer service team at info@fontanatruckinsurance.com, or fill out our contact form, and we’ll get back to you soon!
