Alaska Commercial Truck Insurance

---

Operating a trucking business in Alaska comes with its own set of unique challenges — harsh winters, rugged terrain, and long stretches of remote highway. That’s why having the right trucking insurance coverage isn’t just important — it’s essential. At Trucking Insurance Now, we help Alaska truckers and fleet owners find customized, affordable coverage designed to keep you compliant and protected wherever the road takes you.

The average cost of commercial truck insurance in Alaska typically ranges between $12,000 and $17,000 per year for a single truck and trailer.

However, costs can vary based on several factors, including:

• Your driving history and experience
• The type of cargo you haul
• Coverage limits and deductibles
• The cities or routes you operate in (e.g., Anchorage vs. Fairbanks)
• Whether you’re leased on to a carrier or operate under your own authority

For small fleets, the annual cost can range between $9,000 and $13,000 per truck, while new owner-operators may see higher premiums due to limited experience or operating authority.

Popular trucking cities in Alaska include:
Anchorage • Fairbanks • Wasilla • Kenai • Juneau • Palmer • Soldotna • North Pole

The Alaska Department of Transportation (ADOT) and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA)require certain minimum coverages for commercial motor carriers:

• $750,000 to $5,000,000 in liability coverage (depending on cargo type)
• $300,000 for non-hazardous freight in smaller vehicles
• $1,000,000 minimum for hauling oil
• $5,000,000 for hazardous materials
• Cargo insurance for freight (often required by shippers and brokers)
• Physical damage coverage (recommended to protect your truck and trailer)
• Bobtail/non-trucking liability if you’re leased on but operating without a trailer
