With only about 120,000 waste collection workers across the country, the waste hauling industry faces significant operational and safety challenges.

That’s why we’ve developed a specialized Waste Haulers Insurance program tailored for agents and brokers looking to place tough environmental and transportation-related accounts. Whether your client operates a small local trash pickup service or a multi-state sanitation fleet, we’re here to provide comprehensive coverage solutions.
