Industrial, Energy & Specialty Business Fleets

Industrial service trucks, field-service fleets, specialty equipment, and mixed vehicle operations.

Industrial and specialty fleets combine heavy units, mounted equipment, and demanding customer contracts. In the Coastal Bend and across Texas, that includes refinery, petrochemical, oilfield, and marine work. These accounts are underwritten individually, and the right market depends heavily on the specific operation.

Where we fit. We work best with established businesses running several vehicles, often 5 to 50, with current commercial auto coverage and a reason to review it. Eligibility depends on the operation and the insurance companies involved.

Questions fleet owners ask

Our customers require high limits for plant access. Can you help?

Yes. Send the insurance requirements from the plant or operator agreement and we’ll review how your auto, general liability, and umbrella measure up.

Is passenger transportation treated differently?

Yes. Transporting people, as with non-emergency medical transportation, is underwritten as a passenger exposure, with its own driver, vehicle, and regulatory considerations.
