Policy Highlights: Coal hauling is a specialized segment of the freight trucking industry with distinct operational risks. Colonial General Insurance Agency, Inc. offers a tailored Coal Hauling Insurance program to help appointed agents place coverage for haulers operating in this niche. Whether your client runs a single truck or a small fleet, this program is built to address the exposures common to coal transport. Ideal Accounts and Appetite This program is intended for independent coal haulers and small to mid-sized trucking operations that move coal short to medium distances. Strong-fit accounts routinely transport coal from mines to processing facilities, power plants, or regional depots, and operate within a defined regional footprint. Colonial General most often places risks that operate within approximately 500 miles and that use properly maintained heavy-haul vehicles. Preferred accounts have prior coverage, stable loss history, and documented maintenance and safety programs. Risks that fall outside the coal transport niche, operate beyond the listed territories, or show poor safety or loss records may not be eligible. Coverage Highlights and Advantages Colonial General packages coverages to protect coal haulers against the most common exposures in this line of business: Auto Liability: Limits available up to $1,000,000 CSL. Cargo Coverage: Limits up to $100,000, with refrigeration breakdown coverage included where applicable. Physical Damage: Available with deductible options from $500 to $5,000 to match varying budgets and risk tolerances. Radius Options: Coverage available for hauls up to 500 miles—designed for regional operations. Together, these coverages address liability from accidents, damage to transported coal, and physical damage to vehicles used in coal hauling. Underwriting Notes and Minimum Premiums Colonial General places coal hauling business through a range of carrier partners, offering both admitted and non-admitted options depending on state and risk characteristics. Minimum premium requirements vary by carrier and account size; agents should submit full details to determine eligibility and pricing. Prepare submissions with a complete vehicle schedule, driver rosters and MVRs, radius of operation, and prior loss runs. Accounts with documented safety programs, up-to-date maintenance records, and clean loss histories are more likely to secure competitive terms. Territories and Availability This program is available to appointed retail agents in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. Colonial General has a regional focus across these Western states and understands the operational realities and regulatory environment for coal transport in the area. Why Work With Colonial General?
