Trailer Interchange Insurance
Trailer interchange insurance provides physical damage coverage for trailers you do not own while they are in your possession under a written trailer interchange agreement. This coverage is essential for trucking businesses that regularly haul leased, borrowed, or customer-owned trailers.
At Insured Me Direct, we help owner-operators and trucking companies secure trailer interchange coverage that meets contract and carrier requirements.
Who Needs Trailer Interchange Insurance?
Trailer interchange insurance is recommended for:
Owner-operators with their own authority
Trucking companies hauling non-owned trailers
Carriers operating under written interchange agreements
Businesses that pull trailers owned by shippers, brokers, or other motor carriers
If you sign a trailer interchange agreement, this coverage is often required before you can haul non-owned trailers.
How Trailer Interchange Insurance Works
Trailer interchange insurance covers physical damage to non-owned trailers while they are in your care, custody, or control under a written interchange agreement. Coverage typically applies to damage caused by:
Collision
Fire
Theft
Vandalism
Certain weather-related events
The policy pays for repair or replacement of the damaged trailer, subject to the policy deductible and limits.
