Timber runs deep in Alabama

Sawmills, pulp and paper mills, and logging crews run year-round, and the trucks and equipment that keep them supplied face long rural routes and demanding schedules.

FAQ

Logging insurance in Alabama — common questions

Do I need log truck insurance to haul timber in Alabama?
Yes. Alabama requires commercial auto liability to operate log trucks, and mills and landowners typically require proof of coverage and specific limits before you can haul for them. We handle the policy and the filings.
Is logging insurance in Alabama written on admitted or surplus-lines paper?
Both, depending on your operation. Many logging risks are placed through surplus-lines markets that specialize in timber; we place you with the right market for your size and exposure.
What coverage do Alabama logging contractors usually carry?
Most carry a combination of log truck liability, physical damage, equipment, and general liability, often with excess limits on top.
