Forest Insurance — Victor O. Schinnerer & Company, Inc. Victor O. Schinnerer & Company, Inc. offers a dedicated Forest Insurance program designed for timber-related operations. The program covers core exposures associated with logging, log road construction, reforestation, chipping operations, and hauling of logs and chips. Available coverages include commercial general liability, commercial auto, and umbrella protection (specific coverages and forms may vary by state). Overview of the Program From the Company This program is offered through Victor O. Schinnerer & Company, Inc. as a Managing General Underwriter with market access to Chartis. It is positioned for agents who need a market that understands the unique operational, equipment and transportation risks of the forest and timber industry. Underwriting focuses on matching appropriate limits and endorsements to on-site exposures and fleet operations.

Accounts with chronic loss histories, large-scale aerial logging, or significant unmitigated environmental exposures will require additional underwriting review. Coverage Highlights and Advantages Commercial General Liability tailored for operations with high third-party exposure (road crossings, public land access, bystanders).
