Frequently Asked Questions
How does tilt tray insurance differ from commercial truck insurance?
Tilt tray insurance includes features specific to vehicles with hydraulic trays, such as loading damage, equipment failure and recovery incidents. Standard truck or commercial insurance may not include these risks unless added. It also considers the conditions tilt trays operate under, such as roadside breakdown assistance or industrial transport.
What does tilt tray insurance cost?
Premiums are influenced by vehicle type, insured value, load capacity, use case and location. Additional factors such as business size, vehicle modifications, operator history and claims background also play a role. We can help clarify how these apply to your situation and insurance options.
How can I get a quote for tilt tray insurance?
You can request a quote online or by phone through Insuregroup. To begin, you’ll need to provide information about your tilt tray’s make, function and use. We then compare options from leading insurers and assist in explaining features, answering questions and reviewing documentation to support your decision-making process.
