kinda perplexed - 02-09-2009, 08:54 PM

Hi Guys sorry been away a long time business is great! I gotta question though n I know imma be called a duffus for not doing this when I started my business buuuuut I got a call from a local electric utility company today and was asked if I would consider doing their fleet vehicles. I'm stoked! it would be a big boost for my business only they need me to get a 1,000,000 liability insurance policy. I've never gotten insurance anyone know how much something like this would cost me and where I could get coverage?

We are paying $236 a year for million dollar liability coverage!

We get it through a local insurance broker but the main company is RCI I believe.

we used to paint utility trucks and they provide you with all the info and requirements right up front ... they pay on time and don't nickle and dime you. Set a rate and then negotiate with a firm hand.
Cops aren't going to be picky with their cars ..a day after you detail it the may throw someone over their hood or crash it in a persuit
