Summer is moving season, and one bad claim can wipe out the busiest quarter of your year.

Moving companies sit at the intersection of federal motor carrier rules, state consumer protection laws, and direct-to-consumer service obligations. The insurance package looks nothing like general freight, and most movers are underinsured for at least one major exposure.

The Supreme Court just changed how every freight broker in America does business.
On May 14, 2026, a unanimous 9-0 ruling in Montgomery v. Caribe Transport ended the federal preemption shield that protected brokers from state lawsuits over carrier selection. Brokers can now be sued in every state for hiring carriers with known safety problems.

What changes immediately:
• Brokers must document carrier vetting for every load
• FMCSA safety data review is now a legal defense, not a courtesy
• Carriers with strong records will see expanded freight access
• Carriers with conditional ratings will lose broker relationships
• Broker insurance pricing will adjust significantly over 12 to 24 months

Pulling a trailer that is not yours? Your regular insurance probably will not cover it.
Trailer interchange insurance is one of the most overlooked coverages in trucking, and it is the difference between a small premium and a $50,000 out-of-pocket bill when something goes wrong with a non-owned trailer.

Here is what you need to know:
• Required by ports, rail terminals, and most intermodal contracts
• Covers physical damage to non-owned trailers in your possession
• Different from non-owned trailer coverage and cargo insurance
• Typically costs $100 to $1,500 per year
• Requires a written interchange agreement to respond

New to running your own authority? Here is what nobody tells you about insurance requirements.

The FMCSA minimum is $750,000 in liability, but the real-world minimum is $1 million because that is what brokers actually require. And the policy is only half the job. Without the right filings, your authority sits inactive even after you pay the premium.

Where is your truck right now? If you cannot answer in under 10 seconds, your customers already know.

Real-time freight visibility has become a baseline requirement in trucking. Shippers demand it, brokers prefer it, insurance companies reward it, and cargo thieves target the carriers that do not have it.

Paying sky-high premiums on your trucking insurance? You might be labeled "high risk" and not even know why.

Underwriters look at a lot more than just your accident history. CSA scores, driver experience, cargo type, equipment age, and even how long you have held your authority all play a role in how much you pay every month.

The good news is that most of these factors can be improved with the right plan.
