🚚 Commercial Auto for Trades & Delivery: Non-Owned Auto Exposure 🇨🇦

From electricians and plumbers to delivery services and couriers, many Canadian businesses depend on vehicles to keep operations running. But personal auto policies don’t cover every risk—making Commercial Auto Insurance a crucial safeguard.

⚡ Commercial Auto Coverage

• Protects vehicles owned by the business, whether it’s a single van or a fleet of trucks.
• Covers liability 🛡️, physical damage, and accident benefits when vehicles are used for business purposes.
• Can be tailored to address the unique risks of trades, contractors, and delivery-based operations.

🚗 Non-Owned Auto Exposure

Even if your business doesn’t own vehicles, you may still face risk:

• Employees using personal cars for deliveries, client visits, or errands.
• Occasional vehicle rentals for business use.
• Contractors driving on your behalf.

In these situations, Non-Owned Auto Liability protects your business if you’re held legally responsible for an accident. Without it, a single crash could expose your company to significant legal and financial consequences.

📌 Why It Matters in Canada

Work vehicles typically face higher mileage, heavier loads, and more frequent use—all factors that increase accident risk. Personal auto policies aren’t designed to handle these exposures, creating dangerous coverage gaps for businesses that rely on them.

✅ The Takeaway

If vehicles play any role in your operations—whether owned, rented, or employee-driven—make sure your business has both Commercial Auto and Non-Owned Auto coverage. It’s one of the most important steps you can take to protect your business and manage risk effectively.
