Farm Truck & Semi Insurance
Coverage for Farm Vehicles, Semis & Grain Haulers
Coverage for your Farm Use
Farm trucks and semis keep your operation moving-from field to elevator, through harvest and winter hauls. Insurance needs shift based on how you use your vehicles: local-only, seasonal, or hauling across county or state lines. Gateway Insurance can help you structure coverage to fit your farm use, and/or if applicable, commercial requirements
Key Protections for Trucks, Semis, and Grain Hauling
Farm Vehicle Liability
Covers injuries or property damage you may cause while operating a farm truck or semi for farm use (local, not for hire).
Physical Damage Coverage
Coverage for repairs or replacement if your farm truck, semi, or grain hauler is damaged by collision, fire, hail, theft, or rollover.
Grain Hauling Insurance
Covers trucks and trailers used for seasonal grain hauling
Commercial Auto for Farm Use
Required if you haul for hire, travel beyond your farm premises, or cross state lines-Gateway can explain the differences between the farm truck vs. where the commercial auto applies.
DOT Filings & Certificates
For vehicles needing federal/state filings or elevator contracts, we can issue ID cards, COIs, and we also handle the paperwork.
Insurance for the Year
or Just the Season
Seasonal Use
Structure policies to reflect when trucks are on the road (harvest, planting, or winter feeding).
Vehicle Storage
Adjust coverage or suspend certain protections during off-season storage-ask about options for flexibility.
Driver/Vehicle Changes
Gateway can update policies as drivers or vehicles change throughout the year, just let our office know!
When Do You Need More Than a Farm Policy?
Farm truck Policy
Works for trucks used strictly for your own farm, within local radius, and not for hire.
Commercial Auto
Needed for grain hauling for hire, longer-distance runs, or if required by contracts/elevators-Gateway can review your operation with you and help clarify which applies to your situation.
Farm Truck & Semi Insurance-Questions Answered
Is my farm truck covered under my farm policy?
No, most farm operations have their farm truck titled and drive them on public roads.
If you haul for hire, cross state lines, or need higher limits, a commercial auto policy may be needed.
Do I need commercial auto for a farm semi?
If the semi is used for anything beyond your own farm (hauling for hire, long-distance), you'll likely need commercial auto coverage.
How do I insure a grain truck that is used seasonally?
Seasonal coverage is available and we can tailor the policy to your truck's usage.
What coverage do I need for hauling to elevator?
Some elevators/contracts require higher liability or proof of insurance-Gateway can issue COIs (Certificates of Insurance) if needed, and can review your policy so you have the coverage you need.
