Trailer Interchange Insurance

Protection planning for non-owned trailers in a trucker's possession under a written interchange agreement.

Connect coverage to the actual operation

Trailer interchange coverage may address covered physical damage to non-owned trailers when responsibility arises under an interchange agreement. It is not the same as coverage for every borrowed, rented, or non-owned trailer, so the agreements and actual use must be reviewed.

Risks to review

  • Collision, overturn, theft, fire, and weather damage
  • Responsibility assumed in an interchange agreement
  • High trailer values or multiple trailers in custody
  • Gaps between interchange, non-owned trailer, and physical-damage forms

Information to prepare

  • Interchange and equipment agreements
  • Trailer types, maximum values, and number in custody
  • Pickup, inspection, maintenance, and damage-reporting procedures
  • Territory, parking, security, and loss history

Frequently asked questions

Is trailer interchange coverage the same as non-owned trailer coverage?

Not always. Triggers, written-agreement requirements, covered causes of loss, limits, and deductibles can differ by form.

What limit should be considered?

Review the highest trailer value, potential number in custody, agreement requirements, and how the policy applies per occurrence or trailer.

Coverage descriptions are general. Eligibility, availability, limits, deductibles, valuation, exclusions, and policy terms vary by operation and insurance market. Actual policy documents control.
