Do I qualify for a farm dump truck insurance policy?

Those who drive their dump trucks over ten-thousand miles a year probably don’t qualify for farm auto.

What’s included in a farm dump truck insurance policy?
While you can opt for lots of fancy coverages, most farm dump truck insurance policies come with just a few simple coverages.
Auto Liability Insurance
This is standard insurance for any auto policy, not just dump trucks. It protects other people and other people’s property from damage caused by your vehicle. In the event of an accident where you’re at fault, this coverage pays for any repairs, medical expenses, and vehicle replacements.
Collision Coverage
This insurance protects your vehicle. Say you’re in an accident with another vehicle where you’re at fault and you total your dump truck. This coverage pays for a replacement vehicle.
Comprehensive Coverage
This insurance protects your dump truck from things other than collisions. Things like fire, theft, vandalism, and so on.
Cargo Insurance
This optional coverage protects the things you haul. If you’re in an accident and the materials you had loaded into the dump truck are ruined, cargo coverage kicks in and reimburses you for the losses.
Medical Payments Insurance
Another optional coverage. This kicks in if you or one of your passengers is hurt in an accident. It pays for medical bills no matter who was at fault in an accident.
