Trucking Coverages for Independent Contractors

Hudson is a market leader for Independent Contractor coverages. Non-Trucking Liability coverage affords liability coverage for permanently leased-on owner-operators while their trucks are operated for personal convenience, outside the scope of the motor carrier’s control or direction, and with no economic benefit to the owner-operator or the lease company. Unladen Liability coverage affords liability coverage for permanently leased-on owner-operators while their truck is hauling an empty trailer or has no trailer attached. Bobtail Liability coverage affords liability coverage for permanently leased-on owner operators while their truck has no trailer attached. Truck Physical Damage coverage provides collision and comprehensive coverage for the owner-operators’ vehicles. Occupational Accident coverage provides coverage for an owner-operator’s injuries while on the job.

We are dedicated to getting owner-operators back up and running as quickly as possible after an accident by professional and efficient handling of physical damage claims. Our experienced claims professionals promptly handle occupational – accident claims in the event of an injury. We can be reached 24/7, and claims can be submitted by phone or online.

  • Non-Trucking Liability (NTL) limits up to $1,000,000
