Truck Insurance Specialists – Australia-Wide Coverage

When you’re in the trucking business, there’s no room for error. Delays cost money, accidents disrupt operations, and the risks on the road grow by the day. That’s why having the right Truck Insurance isn’t just smart—it’s essential.

At Wideland Insurance Brokers, we are specialist Truck Insurance Brokers with deep experience in the Australian transport industry. Whether you operate a single prime mover or manage a fleet of 100 heavy vehicles, we deliver customised insurance solutions designed for the realities of road transport.

Our clients include owner-drivers, logistics companies, fleet managers, and contractors across every state and territory. We provide expert guidance, compare top insurers, and help you find policies that match your vehicles, cargo, and risk profile—without wasting your time.


🛡️ What Makes Us Truck Insurance Specialists?

Not all insurance brokers understand trucks. At Wideland, we live and breathe transport. Our specialist knowledge allows us to structure policies that protect your business at every level—from vehicle damage and goods in transit, to depot and office operations.

We’ve partnered with a panel of specialist Truck Insurance providers across Australia, some of which offer unique or limited-distribution products not available through direct channels. These include products designed specifically for:

  • Heavy haulage and long-distance freight

  • Agricultural and regional transport operators

  • Dangerous goods and temperature-sensitive loads

  • Contracted subbies and logistics firms

  • Fleet management and mixed-use vehicle operations

Because we’re brokers—not tied agents—we act on your behalf to compare insurers, negotiate better premiums, and help you understand what you’re actually covered for.


🚛 Our Truck Insurance Products

We don’t offer “off-the-shelf” cover. Instead, we bundle tailored risk solutions based on your vehicle types, business size, and transport activities. Our core Truck Insurance solutions include:

1. Heavy Motor Insurance

The foundation of every transport business. We cover prime movers, rigid trucks, trailers, tankers, tippers, and more—whether you own one unit or run a large fleet. Covers damage, third party liability, theft, and downtime.

2. Carriers Load Insurance

Also known as Carriers Liability or Goods in Transit insurance, this protects you if cargo is lost, damaged, or stolen while in your care. Ideal for freight operators, distribution companies, and subcontractors.

3. Marine Transit Insurance

Designed for high-value or cross-border cargo. This can be packaged as annual cover or one-off shipments, and may include international movement or extended liability.

4. Depot Insurance

Protects your premises, including buildings, stock, equipment, and tools. Often combined with business interruption cover for loss of income after a fire, flood, or burglary.

5. Office Insurance

Covers the administration side of your business: computers, files, public liability, and business continuity. Often overlooked, but vital if you have employees or run dispatch operations.

6. Public & Product Liability

Essential for contractors or businesses operating on third-party sites or transporting goods for others. Can be bundled into your overall transport insurance package.

📈 What Affects Your Truck Insurance Premium?

Insurers consider a variety of risk factors when pricing your policy, including:

  • Age and type of truck (e.g. rigid vs articulated)

  • Cargo type and transit route

  • Driver experience and claims history

  • Business location and operating hours

  • Fleet size and safety practices

  • Use of telematics or dashcams
