Florida Tow Truck Insurance Explained

As a tow truck operator in Florida, you face unique risks every day. From hauling disabled vehicles on busy highways to storing cars in your tow yard, your business needs comprehensive protection. Florida tow truck insurance is a specialized form of commercial auto insurance that safeguards your trucks, drivers, customers' vehicles, and your company's future.

State laws set minimum insurance requirements for tow truck operations, but meeting the bare minimum often leaves gaps. At Barbee Jackson Insurance, we help tow truck businesses go beyond basics with tailored coverage options that fit your specific needs — whether you run light-duty flatbeds or heavy wreckers.

Florida Tow Truck Insurance Requirements

Florida requires specific minimum limits for commercial auto liability, in-tow (on-hook) coverage, storage, and more. These depend on your truck's gross vehicle weight (GVW) and operations.

Commercial Auto Liability Limits (combined bodily injury and property damage per occurrence):

• Tow trucks under 35,000 lbs GVW: $50,000 Combined Single Limit
• 35,000–39,999 lbs GVW: $100,000 Combined Single Limit
• 40,000+ lbs GVW: $300,000 Combined Single Limit

In-Tow (On-Hook) Coverage: Minimum $50,000 to protect towed vehicles from damage while in transit.

Storage (Tow Yard) Coverage:

• Garage Liability: Minimum $300,000 Combined Single Limit
• Garage Keepers Legal Liability: Minimum $50,000 per loss (covers fire, theft, vandalism, etc.)

Personal Injury Protection (PIP): Minimum $10,000 per occurrence.

Staying compliant avoids fines and business interruptions, but many tow company owners need higher limits for valuable vehicles or high-risk jobs. We work with top insurance companies to customize your policy.

Flatbed towing is often the safest option for customers' vehicles, reducing risk during transport:

Essential Coverage Options for Tow Truck Operators

Beyond state minimums, consider these key protections:

• Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability — Covers injuries or damage you cause to others.
• On-Hook Towing Insurance — Protects towed vehicles from theft, fire, or collision while hooked.
• Garage Keepers Legal Liability — Safeguards customer vehicles in your care, custody, or control.
• Physical Damage Coverage (collision & comprehensive) — Repairs your tow truck after accidents, theft, or weather damage.
• Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist — Protects you if hit by a driver with little or no insurance (secondary to PIP in Florida's No-Fault state).
• Medical Payments — Extra coverage for you and passengers' injuries.
• Customer’s Contents Coverage — Reimburses personal items stolen from stored vehicles.
