Where to buy commercial auto insurance online?

Reader question:

How do I know where to buy commercial auto insurance online?

Alicia

Good question, Alicia.

Where to buy commercial auto insurance online, or where is the best place for you, will depend on what state you are in. While a car insurance company might have a very good record in my state, it might not be the same in your state. You should look at the customer complaint ratios for different companies at your department of insurance website so that you can find out where to buy commercial auto insurance online.

I will offer one suggestion, and that is Esurance. If you buy your commercial auto insurance through Esurance online, then you get a 10% discount off of your policy, which is the best online discount that I have seen so far. Esurance also offers a variety of other discounts which, if you qualify for all of them (unlikely) will discount your policy by up to 80%.

Of course, you should consider more than just an online discount, but it is a good indication that the company cares about its online customers and is willing to offer them options.

Do I need to buy cheap commercial car insurance online if I have a home business?

Chris

Thanks for asking, Chris.

The path is a little murkier than others for people who own small, home based businesses, especially when they have no employees. However, unless you don’t do any driving for business purposes at all, ever, then you need to consider the possibility that you might need to buy cheap commercial car insurance online. The first thing to do is for you to consider how you use your car and speak with your car insurance agent or car insurance company customer representative about it to find out if you require a conversion to a commercial insurance policy.

If you don’t need to buy cheap commercial car insurance online, you might still be able to insure your car for business purposes. You can do ths by adding a business endorsement onto your auto insurance policy, something which can be done with your homeowner’s insurance policy as well. In addition to that, you should also raise your liability rates so that they are able to better cover you in the instance of an accident.

Commercial car insurance agent online rate quote

Reader question:

Should I get a commercial car insurance agent online rate quote or something else?

Jerry

Good question, Jerry.

Whether you should get a commercial car insurance agent online rate quote or something else depends on your situation. I would say that in most cases it is completely unnecessary for you to hire an agent. Helpful though they may be, they cost more because they charge a fee, and often can’t give you as wide a range of choices as you can get by just spending a few minutes online.

One situation where I would say that an auto insurance agent would be very helpful is if you have trouble deciding if you need commercial car insurance at all. To preempt that, I’ll give you an idea of who needs it.

• You need a commercial policy if you transpot goods or persons.
• You have employees who drive for work purposes.
• You require more coverage than is available through a typical personal car insurance policy.
• You have more than one vehicle as an artisan.
• You have certain work equipment which is attached to your car and cannot be removed.
• You own your business with someone else.
