More on Blanket Dealers’ Open Lot
Dealers Open Lot Coverage, although not required by law, is the most important insurance coverage you can add to your policy to protect your business. Why? It protects your investment from damages outside of your control. If your inventory was wiped out today, could you afford to buy every vehicle damaged our lost on your lot? Could your business survive? In most cases the answer is no.

Two Types of Form Available
Reporting Form – Requires the dealership to submit monthly inventory reports to the insurance carrier each of month. This option insures the insurance carrier that it has the most accurate inventory numbers. With this option selected, no coinsurance is required, plus a 15% discount is added to the policy. This is the most common form selected and saves the most money for the dealership.
Non-Reporting – Is based on the maximum anticipated inventory value during a policy period. This form pays a higher cost of insurance and a coinsurance penalty applies to under-insured inventory
