Common Questions From Vermont Owners
FAQ for business insurance
What does a Business Owners Policy include
A BOP usually combines general liability with commercial property coverage for qualifying small businesses. It can also include business income for covered interruptions. Many owners add endorsements like equipment breakdown or cyber for broader protection. We will confirm if your business qualifies and compare BOP pricing to separate policies.
Do I need workers compensation in Vermont
Most employers with employees must carry workers compensation. It helps pay medical costs and lost wages for job-related injuries or illness. Even part-time or seasonal staff can trigger the requirement. Hull Insurance Agency will review your staffing and place a policy that meets state rules.
How much liability coverage should my business carry
Start with limits that reflect your foot traffic, operations, and contract requirements. Main Street retailers and contractors often choose higher limits due to public exposure and jobsite risks. A commercial umbrella can add an extra layer over your primary policies. We will discuss claim scenarios and help you pick limits with confidence.
Can you insure my vehicles and mobile equipment
Yes, commercial auto covers titled vehicles from service vans to box trucks. Tools, contractors equipment, and installation materials are often insured on an inland marine form. We can coordinate deductibles and theft prevention requirements to keep pricing competitive. One account manager will help you keep schedules current through the year.
How can I lower my business insurance costs
Carrier credits often reward clean loss history, strong safety practices, and good housekeeping. Bundling multiple lines with one insurer can produce package discounts. Adjusting deductibles and refining property values can also help. We will benchmark quotes and create a risk improvement checklist tailored to your operations.
