Transporter Plates Insurance Coverage

What Are Transporter Plates?

Transporter plates are used by the transportation industry to transport unregistered vehicles from one point to another (usually from the manufacturer to a dealer lot). These plates may be moved from vehicle to vehicle.

For example, School District A in Colorado wants to order 6 school buses for their district. The model of the bus they want is manufactured by Best Bus in Pennsylvania. Transporting buses is a difficult endeavor, so an outside transport company would be enlisted to drive the 6 buses from Pennsylvania to Colorado under transport plates.

This means that our underwriters have the ability to examine your risk and help you pick what packages will best represent your operation – whether you just need the auto liability to cover the plates, or if you would like to have your whole operation insured under our garage policy which would provide protection from any accidents that might happen along the journey.

Why Do Transporter Plates Need Coverage?

Today, nothing is more valuable than time, convenience, and peace of mind. This is especially true for consumers, which is why the transportation industry is so important. Accordingly, the insurance for the companies that use transporter plates is just as significant.

Transport plates are a difficult risk to place. Many times, most companies find that other insurers leave dangerous gaps in coverage or simply refuse to cover the risk at all due to the potential for hefty legal expenses.

This is a very versatile risk—you need versatile insurance!
