With over 40 years of experience, we understand the unique risks associated with underground storage tanks. We can provide the coverage solutions you need.
What is Underground Storage Tank Insurance?
XINSURANCE’s Underground Storage Tank insurance solution ties closely with our Pollution Liability solution that offers broad, flexible, and comprehensive pollution liability insurance for owners and operators of various risks on a claims-made policy form. Pollution liability is designed to respond to environmental liabilities resulting from pollution incidents at, under, or emanating from your property.
Under federal requirements, owners and operators must demonstrate financial responsibility for taking corrective action and for compensating third parties for bodily injury and property damage caused by accidental releases arising from the operation of aboveground or underground storage tanks. Nowadays, insurance carriers are non-renewing due to the age of the tanks.

Does UST insurance cover aboveground storage tanks (ASTs)?
Most insurance companies do not cover aboveground storage tanks (AST) under the same underground storage tank (UST) insurance policy. However, XINSURANCE can provide liability insurance solutions that can cover both USTs and ASTs.
How much does underground storage tank insurance cost?
The cost of underground storage tank (UST) insurance varies widely based on several factors, including the size and age of the tanks, the type and quantity of substance stored, the location, the tank construction and materials, desired coverage limits and deductibles, past claims history, and more.
To get a more accurate cost of UST insurance, please contact us to talk about your insurance needs so we can provide a personalized quote.
What does UST insurance cover?
Underground Storage Tank (UST) Insurance typically covers the cost of cleaning up pollution caused by leaking tanks, the repair or replacement of the damaged tank, liability for injury to third parties or damage to their property, and defense costs associated with claims.
Why is underground storage tank insurance necessary?
Underground storage tank insurance is required by federal and state laws for certain tank owners and, even when not required, it offers crucial protection against substantial financial liabilities that can result from leaks or spills.
What is the difference between sudden and accidental, and non-sudden accidental coverage?
Sudden and Accidental coverage responds to pollution incidents that occur abruptly within a short, defined period, while Non-Sudden Accidental covers pollution events that occur gradually over a longer time.
Can I be insured if I've been dropped or rejected by an insurance company?
Yes, XINSURANCE can help you even if you’ve been declined, canceled, or non-renewed by an insurance company. We step in to provide an insurance solution when others can’t or won’t.
