LP Gas Dealers Insurance FAQs
Here are answers to common questions propane and LP gas businesses ask about insurance:
-
Why do LP gas dealers need specialized insurance?
Handling propane carries unique risks, including fire, explosion, and environmental hazards. Standard business insurance alone isn’t enough. LP gas dealer coverage addresses those specialized exposures.
-
Does general liability cover propane leaks or spills?
Not typically. You’ll need pollution or environmental liability coverage to protect against claims tied to leaks, contamination, or clean-up costs.
-
What coverage is required for delivery trucks?
Commercial auto insurance is necessary for all vehicles used in fuel delivery. It ensures liability, collision, and cargo risks are properly covered.
-
How does equipment breakdown coverage help LP gas dealers?
If pumps, compressors, or other critical equipment fail, equipment breakdown coverage helps pay for repairs or replacement, keeping operations running smoothly.
-
Can Johannes Agency cover both wholesale and retail propane operations?
Yes. We work with both large distributors and local retail centers, tailoring policies to match the scope of your business.
