What type of coverage do tree trimmers need? 

Because of the high risks involved with the tree trimming business, standard markets sometimes will not work and you must find  coverage with a specialty carrier. There are a number of types of coverages tree trimmers should consider carrying:

  • General Liability: Covers property damage and bodily injury from third party claimants (property owners). 
  • Worker's Compensation: Protects employees if they become sick or injured in an accident on the job. This will pay for medical costs and lost wages.
  • Professional liability: Covers tree trimmers in the event a third party takes legal action against them, alleging they provided advice or recommendations that resulted in a loss. 
  • Product liability insurance: Protects tree trimmers from claims due to faulty materials used on a job.
  • Commercial Auto: Covers damage and liability on the company's work related vehicles.
