What Does Construction Equipment Rental Insurance Cover?
The coverage that construction equipment rental insurance can provide will depend on your unique circumstances. XINSURANCE does not provide a cookie-cutter policy that applies to everyone. Instead, we talk to you and learn more about you and/or your business. We then come up with an insurance solution that provides customized coverage based on your needs. This all-in-one approach allows you to pick the coverage you want on your insurance policy.
Typically, our construction equipment rental insurance solutions can cover physical damage coverage for the equipment itself, liability coverage for injuries or damage caused to third parties, coverage for theft and vandalism, and more.
Do I Need Construction Equipment Rental Insurance?
It depends on your rental agreement. Many rental companies require you to have a certificate of insurance before they will rent to you. Even if it isn’t required, it is still wise to carry coverage to protect yourself and your business from potential financial loss due to equipment damage, loss, or liability claims.
How Much Does Construction Equipment Rental Insurance Cost?
The cost of construction equipment rental insurance can depend on several factors, including the value of the equipment being rented, the expected rental duration, the type of project being undertaken, and the level and types of coverage desired. It’s best to contact XINSURANCE if you’d like to get an accurate estimate.
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.
Insurance for Construction Contractors
If you’re a construction contractor, we can provide an insurance solution tailored to your needs. If you already have an insurance policy, we can take a look at it to see if you have any gaps or exclusions that are leaving you exposed. Then, we can offer a solution that leaves you better protected. Ask about our policy review today!
