Why do freight brokers need insurance?
Insurance coverage for truck brokers and other trucking companies may be required by state laws or contracts. You may need proof of insurance to work with a shipper or motor carrier, or they may ask you to list them as an additional insured. Maintaining coverage is in the shipper's interest and yours as well, as it can pay for costly lawsuits and accidents.
