Suggestions on markets for non-emergency transportation.. for mentally disabled persons.. it is a new venture.. so no loss runs available

Almost any Commercial Auto carrier will entertain this risk for the auto piece. For the CGL, you're probably looking surplus lines.

Thanks Lady..

I appreciate your responses.. for this one and others..

But i need like, a carrier that specializes in it and like.. gives good rates.. because i've got quotes already.. ranging from 15,000K to 5,000.. maybe i can narrow down my search by going to a specific carrier

Thanks

Be cautious of the "Loading & Unloading" part of this exposure. That's where the real loss exposure is.....and one that you want to make sure is covered.

Your quote range is what I would expect for this risk, for the Commercial Auto premium. Is your prospect balking at the premium ranges?

I think most preferred and standard carriers shy away from livery. Have you tried Northland Insurance? They're a specialty arm for Travelers.

Marmar - the risk will have to split, Auto and GL. Have you received any quotes yet? I have to say, I see new business submissions on this class all the time....this class, Limo services and Non Armed Security guards. IMHO, all three classes are a huge time waster, and have really high failure rates. Just my 2 cents, though....

If the van is owned and operated by the facility you can try Progressive. Titan might look at it as well.
