What Is Trailer Insurance?

Trailer insurance is designed to protect an owned commercial trailer against specified insured events. The cover required can vary depending on the trailer, the towing arrangement and whether liability sits with the towing vehicle or another policy.

What Does Trailer Insurance Cover?

Depending on the policy, trailer insurance may cover insured physical loss or damage, theft, fire and certain liability exposures. Non-owned trailers in your care may require trailer in control cover rather than ordinary owned-trailer insurance.
