Our Commercial Truck Physical Damage Insurance Services

Comprehensive physical damage protection for trucks, trailers, and fleets — placed fast through top-rated trucking carriers.

Collision Coverage

Covers repair or replacement costs when your commercial truck is damaged in a collision with another vehicle or object, keeping your rig on the road and your operations running without major out-of-pocket expense.

Comprehensive Coverage

Protects your truck against non-collision losses including theft, vandalism, fire, flooding, and weather-related damage — critical protection for trucks parked overnight or operating through severe weather regions.

Specified Perils Coverage

A targeted, cost-effective alternative to full comprehensive coverage that protects against a defined list of named hazards, ideal for owner-operators seeking affordable physical damage protection with clear, predictable terms.

Fleet Physical Damage

Consolidated physical damage policies covering your entire commercial truck fleet under a single program — simplifying renewals, reducing administrative burden, and ensuring every vehicle in your operation is protected.

Trailer Coverage

Extends physical damage protection to owned trailers and, through trailer interchange agreements, to non-owned trailers in your possession — ensuring full equipment coverage throughout the haul.

New Ventures & High-Risk Placement

Soma specializes in placing physical damage coverage for new trucking ventures, drivers with violations, and operators that standard markets routinely decline — getting you insured at a competitive rate quickly.

Hard-to-Place Coverage

Protect Your Trucks. Keep Your Business Moving.

Commercial trucks face daily exposure to collisions, theft, and severe weather — and a single incident can sideline your operation for weeks. Soma works with top-rated trucking carriers including Chubb, Progressive, Kemper, and Ascend to place physical damage coverage that matches your actual risk profile. From owner-operators running a single semi to regional fleets, we deliver fast quotes through one application, including risks that standard brokers turn away — new ventures, drivers with violations, and specialty haul operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is physical damage coverage for trucking?

Physical damage coverage for trucking protects your commercial truck itself — the tractor, trailer, or other equipment — against direct physical loss or damage. It typically includes collision coverage (damage from accidents) and comprehensive coverage (theft, vandalism, fire, weather). Unlike liability insurance, which covers damage you cause to others, physical damage coverage pays to repair or replace your own vehicle.
