Georgia Trucking Insurance
Commercial Truck Insurance in Georgia
Georgia is home turf — Marquee was founded here, and we insure the lanes we drive: the I-75/I-85 spine through Atlanta, I-20 east–west, and the I-16 corridor feeding the Port of Savannah. Whatever you haul through the Southeast's freight capital, we build the full program across 30+ A-rated markets. Trucking is all we do.

Georgia, Covered
Atlanta to Savannah · our home state, covered
Founded in Georgia. From the Atlanta interchanges to the Savannah docks — one agency, one renewal calendar.
Insurance requirements change. Your coverage shouldn't lag.
State legislatures, the FMCSA, and broker contracts all revise their requirements over time — and carriers usually find out from a compliance notice or a bounced load, then remarket under deadline pressure. We verify every account against current state and federal requirements at quote and at every renewal, so a rule change never catches you rolling. Get ahead of your renewal →
Programs We Build Here
Three Georgia operations. Three different programs.
A Savannah drayage truck, an Atlanta regional fleet, and a new authority running I-75 share a state — and almost nothing else about how their coverage should be built. The same truck gets a different program depending on what it hauls and where — here's how that plays out in Georgia:
Savannah drayage
Owner-operator · port & rail ramps
Built to the UIIA: interchange-ready coverage with equipment providers named and the IANA filing handled.
- Auto liability — written to UIIA standards, with the endorsement on the policy
- Motor truck cargo — protects the freight — required by most brokers and shippers
- Trailer interchange — non-owned chassis, containers, and trailers in your care
- UIIA endorsement & IANA filing — we file it and keep your status active
Atlanta regional fleet
10–50 trucks · metro & Southeast lanes
A fleet program with safety support and one renewal calendar across the whole schedule.
- Auto liability — primary liability under your authority, at limits your contracts require
- Motor truck cargo — protects the freight — required by most brokers and shippers
- Physical damage — collision and comprehensive for owned and financed equipment
- General liability — premises and operations exposure — docks, yards, and loading
- Workers' compensation — for operations with employee drivers
New authority on I-75
First year · long-haul
Broker-ready from day one: the stack load boards expect, with federal filings tied to the authority.
- Auto liability — primary liability under your authority, at limits your contracts require
- Motor truck cargo — protects the freight — required by most brokers and shippers
- Physical damage — collision and comprehensive for owned and financed equipment
- General liability — premises and operations exposure — docks, yards, and loading
- Federal filings — tied to your authority — handled by us
Illustrative program shapes, not advice or a quote — every operation is different, and required coverage comes from your authority, your contracts, and your lender. Requirements change over time; we verify the current ones for your operation at every quote and renewal, and we handle the filings.

Check my coverageThe Peach State's Freight
Built where Southeast freight begins
Atlanta is the Southeast's freight hub — the I-75/I-85 junction moves more truck traffic than almost any interchange in the country, and the region's distribution centers ring the metro on I-20 and I-285. Down I-16, the Port of Savannah has grown into one of the busiest container gateways in the nation, feeding drayage, intermodal, and regional work across the state. That mix — port drayage, metro distribution, long-haul through-freight — is our home book. We're headquartered here, and we quote it every day.
Metro Atlanta distribution
DC-to-store and regional work across the I-285 ring and the I-75/I-85 spine — placed with markets that know metro traffic risk.
Port of Savannah drayage
Container and chassis work down I-16 — and if you're UIIA, our intermodal program keeps your status active.
Long-haul through Georgia
I-75 and I-20 through-freight with the limits brokers on the lane expect — and a remarketing process that makes moving your policy painless.
New Georgia authorities
First-year carriers get compliant, broker-ready, and rolling with our new authority program.

Nate MarquardtPresident, Marquee Insurance GroupGeorgia Questions
What Georgia truckers ask us most
What insurance do I need to run a trucking company in Georgia?
It depends on your operation. Interstate carriers follow federal FMCSA financial-responsibility requirements tied to their authority; carriers operating only within Georgia fall under state operating-authority and filing requirements, which are set by state law and change over time. On top of the legal minimums, brokers and shippers set their own contract requirements — usually higher — and lenders require physical damage on financed equipment. We verify the current requirements for your specific operation at every quote and renewal.
Do you insure port drayage at Savannah?
Yes. Savannah drayage means UIIA compliance — coverage structured to the agreement, equipment providers named, and your filing kept active with IANA. We're a UIIA-registered agency and handle intermodal accounts across Georgia's port and rail ramps — see our UIIA coverage page.
How much does commercial truck insurance cost in Georgia?
It depends on your operation: radius, commodity, driving records, years in business, equipment values, and loss history all move the number. The fastest way to a real number is a quote against 30+ A-rated markets — see how truck insurance cost works.
What coverages do Georgia brokers and shippers usually require?
Beyond auto liability at limits above the legal minimum, most load agreements require motor truck cargo coverage and a certificate listing the broker as certificate holder. Requirements vary by broker and commodity — we read them before we quote. If you haul intermodal, UIIA has its own requirements — see our UIIA coverage page.
Can you insure a brand-new trucking authority in Georgia?
Yes. New ventures are one of our specialties — we place first-year Georgia authorities with carriers that actually want new-venture risk, and our start-up guide walks you through filings, compliance, and what brokers will ask for.
