The Baker-Pegram difference

You’re building a business.
We’re here to help you build it right.

A trucking policy isn't just another auto policy. Your insurance has to work at the speed of your operation—and your agency has to understand what happens after the policy is issued.

EDUCATE FIRST.
SELL SECOND.

We explain the process in plain English so you understand what you're buying, what it does, and what comes next.

TRUCKING ISN'T A SIDE LINE.

We built our service around the realities of commercial transportation, including certificates and time-sensitive requests that can determine whether a load moves.

ONE TEAM. ONE NEXT STEP.

You don't need five different people pointing in five different directions. Start with one conversation and let us help organize the next move.

The first conversation

Start simple.

“Tell us where you are today. We’ll help you figure out what comes next.”

We don't want to greet a brand-new carrier with a 40-field insurance application. Start with a few basics. Your team can follow up knowing where the customer is in the process.

Already hauling freight?Ask us about trucking-focused certificate-of-insurance support for time-sensitive loads and broker requests.

A few questions. One clear next step.
