Bulk Commodity Carriers insurance at Great West is designed to protect the unique needs of commodity carriers and tank haulers. We insure motor carriers that transport both hazardous and non-hazardous materials.
Our team of trucking insurance experts understands that transporting food-grade materials, chemicals, industrial liquids, and flammable commodities can be more demanding than your average load of freight. You deal with situations daily that transporters of packaged materials simply never face. That includes hazmat carriers. We can meet the financial requirements for hazmat filings.
Whether you’re a bulk dry hauler or transport liquid bulk freight, we’ve created insurance that protects your trucking business.
Great West provides insurance for:
At Great West, we only write commercial trucking insurance. That singular focus on motor carrier operations means we understand the ins and outs of the risks your trucking business faces.
To protect the interests of bulk commodity haulers, we take a multi-pronged approach to insuring your operation, your cargo, and your trucks. We work to ensure that you don’t have gaps in your insurance policy, regardless of whether you’re an owner-operator or manage a multi-truck fleet.
You’ll find our Bulk Commodity Carriers insurance policies include several unique benefits that both extend your protection and help you manage your premiums.
Great West’s Motor Carrier policy provides two stand-out advantages for bulk haulers.
As part of Great West’s Bulk Commodity Carriers insurance, our Cargo coverage includes a distinct benefit that bulk haulers should never be without. Our Cargo coverage protects against losses during loading and unloading and damage to cargo from misdelivery.
That means your Cargo coverage would protect your trucking business if you have a mishap at a dock or if you make a mistake delivering a load. A good example: your Cargo coverage would respond if a tank of gasoline is spoiled when it is unloaded into a customer’s half-full diesel underground tank.

With our Commercial General Liability policy, when a truck delivery is complete, any subsequent Bodily Injury or Property Damage losses are covered as part of our standard policy — without you having to add a special endorsement. Our policy protects your business from the financial impact of the misdelivery of any product — even though the cause of the loss was the unloading of a truck or trailer at the wrong location or into the wrong receptacle.
Here are a couple of examples of when your Commercial General Liability coverage would respond:
While other insurance companies offer special endorsements for their Commercial General Liability policies — often called Misdelivery of Liquid Products coverage — it only extends protection for the misdelivery of liquid products. We know of no other insurance company that covers the misdelivery of dry goods or gaseous products.
That’s a big reason to get your Bulk Commodity Carriers insurance from Great West.
