Specialized Coverages 

Deadhead or bobtail insurance

If you’re an owner-operator and use your tractor without a trailer or with an empty trailer, this coverage may be valuable to you. When you aren’t driving for your company, make sure you’re covered. 

 

Trailer interchange

When you’re pulling a trailer that isn’t yours, but is your responsibility by contract, this coverage will make sure any damage to that trailer is covered. 

 

Truckers' enhancements

Our truckers’ enhancements provide over 20 coverages designed with truckers in mind, including a combined truck/trailer/cargo deductible, loan/lease gap coverage, rental reimbursement and tow coverage following a loss, and much more. 

Motor carrier filings

Acuity will make the necessary federal and state filings your trucking operation needs.  Whether it is a financial proof of responsibility or a cargo filing, Acuity knows these filings are critical to your business and will handle them when you need them.
