  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

insuremyequipment.com, who has had a claim with them?

I'm still looking myself and skipped this one for now. I also reached out to my wells fargo rep in LA for insurance options, and they said that anything solid for coverage of about $100k and up will run >$3k per year. policies are different if you rent your gear separately, without you working with it on the job.

isn't that about in the normal range? are you guys getting much cheaper insurance rates than that?

I cancelled my insurance with Heffernan Insurance, I would be scared to file a claim with them.

They are just the broker. You file the claim and they will forward it to an underwriter. Heffernan do not participate on the claim process.
 
How much are you guys paying south of the boarder for a policy? Anyone know a good carrier in Canada. I'm looking at 40k worth for all my gear I take with me on trips.

Tom, sorry to hear about that... glad to hear it got sorted out.
 
2 weeks + to get a call back? That's a deal breaker. Get a phone guys!!!

Who is this company?

Hi Kyle, I've been with them for 2 years. They are nice to work with, the pricing can't be beat, and they have a web interface for the most part (meaning you can edit your account via the web). My only complaint is that its almost impossible to get a hold of them on the phone, or by email. I've currently been waiting 2 weeks for them to return my phone call about a question I had... and that's not even a long time for them. After 3 weeks, I usually have to keep calling them and calling them, and then they start to get the message. I've never had a claim with them, that'll be the next test. Like others have said, it can take over a month for it to get processed (that seems consistent with my other experiences with them)

Difficulty in making contact is certainly not a quality I'd want in an insurance agent/company. Would I want to wait 3 weeks+ were I to make a claim?

+1 What company is this?
 
4 Pages of posting and only a few companies with none jumping out as first rate. Can anyone else chime in on this thread with some reputable insurance company's.

Do you want an insurance company in the city you are in? LA for me? Or does that not matter much?

I gotta pick up the phone and call my agent. Not very often, but when I do, I usually need a reliable answer quickly. There are a lot of picky details and gotchas in this world and the correct information is essential. This ain't liability insurance for your auto.

Haven't filled a claim yet - and hope I never have to. I've been pretty satisfied with Williams, Turner & Mathis here in Atlanta. I'd at least look into them if you're in Georgia.

Will, tried to send you a PM but you're full.

I'm using insuremyequipment.com, and have a broker named Ken McCormick who is almost too fast in his response time. I asked to have my Scarlet serial added when it shipped, and he responded with a revised spreadsheet in less than 2 minutes. Haven't had to file a claim yet but I'm very happy with the coverages and service.
