There are many options to consider for hull insurance coverage and our aviation insurance experts will explain the nuances and discuss options that make sense for your unique situation.

How much does aviation insurance cost?

Transportation coverage regulations vary depending on business type and state-specific laws, though some federal regulations apply universally. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) sets minimum levels of insurance requirements for commercial transportation, considering factors such as passenger capacity, vehicle weight, and cargo type. To operate legally, trucking companies must obtain FMCSA permits, which require proof of liability and cargo insurance. Some states impose further insurance requirements for certain types of cargo being transported, such as hazardous materials.
