Specialized coverage that meets UIIA standards and navigates the complexities of port and rail operations. Secure, compliant, and competitive.
Challenges in Intermodal & Drayage
Drayage operators face unique risks from port congestion to strict UIIA compliance and equipment handoffs:
Meeting stringent UIIA insurance requirements for port/rail access.
Costly delays and demurrage/per diem charges due to port congestion.
Liability for damage to non-owned containers and chassis (Trailer Interchange).
Navigating fluctuating fuel costs and tight profit margins.
Givesurance offers tailored intermodal and drayage insurance that directly addresses these pain points, keeping you compliant and profitable.
Essential Insurance for Intermodal & Drayage Carriers
Beyond standard trucking insurance, drayage and intermodal operations require specific coverages:

Primary Commercial Auto Liability that meets or exceeds the $1 million minimum required by the Uniform Intermodal Interchange Agreement (UIIA).
Trailer Interchange Insurance
Covers physical damage to non-owned trailers (containers, chassis) while in your care, custody, or control under a written interchange agreement.
Motor Truck Cargo (incl. Reefer)
Protects the value of the cargo you are hauling, including options for refrigerated (reefer) cargo if applicable. Ensure it covers containerized freight.
Physical Damage (Own Equipment)
Covers your owned trucks and any owned chassis/trailers against collision, theft, and other physical damage.
General Liability
Protects against third-party claims for bodily injury or property damage not directly related to truck operation (e.g., at your terminal or office).
