Tow Truck Insurance
What Does Tow Truck Insurance Cover?
Tow Truck Insurance coverage is now for any business-owned or leased commercial vehicle. A Tow Truck Insurance Policy typically includes liability coverage for property and personal damage to others as well as on hook coverage and personal injury protection. Tow Truck Insurance can also cover physical damage to the owned or leased tow truck which is also refereed to as collision, and either comprehensive or fire and theft coverage.
Is Tow truck Insurance the same as Commercial Auto Insurance or Business Auto Insurance?
No, but just like you need auto insurance for your own car, you need business auto insurance to cover your business-owned or leased tow truck or flat bed vehicles.
Tow Truck Insurance adds coverage for “On Hook” Coverage or damage to vehicles in tow that would be covered if damaged while in tow.
