Hotshot Trucking Insurance
Hotshot trucking plays a crucial role in delivering urgent loads, expedited freight, and short-haul transportation using pickup-based units such as F-350s, F-450s, F-550s, ram trucks, goosenecks, wedge trailers, and flatbed hotshot setups. Whether operating as CDL or Non-CDL, hotshot truckers must meet strict insurance requirements to stay compliant with brokers, shippers, and load boards.
​
Hotshot carriers typically need higher limits than traditional pickup operators. Depending on your contracts and hauling region, required coverages may include:
​​
-
Motor Truck Cargo (typically $50,000–$100,000)
-
Physical Damage for truck and trailer
-
General Liability
-
Non-Owned Trailer Coverage
-
Garagekeeper’s or Tools/Equipment coverage (if applicable)
​
Hotshot carriers must also provide fast COIs, maintain proper safety scores, and ensure equipment is well-maintained to secure load opportunities. At Eagle National Truck Insurance Services, we help hotshot drivers secure affordable, compliant insurance with the right limits for freight brokers, load boards, and high-value cargo.
