Overview of Inland Marine Insurance
Inland marine insurance covers business property that moves or sits away from your main location, such as tools on a job site, equipment in a truck, or goods in transit. It typically picks up where a standard commercial property policy stops at the door, following mobile and off-site property that fixed-location coverage may leave behind.
Despite the name, inland marine has little to do with boats. It covers business property that moves, tools on a job site, equipment in a truck, goods in transit, or valuable items that standard property coverage leaves behind once they leave your premises.
