I’m very interested in what everyone else is doing to protect themselves. I’m an independent with a little over a million in sales and 25-30% is delivery. I have a 1M separate “non-owned” vehicles policy as well as a very strict requirement mandating that drivers have insurance that specifically includes pizza delivery. It’s not cheap, 5k a year on my end and $1,500 - $2,500 annually for each driver, but they make great money to offset the expense. My drivers get $6.50 phr, $3.00 per delivery, and tips. We estimate that our drivers average 2.5 deliveries p/hr. When not driving, they gladly perform any work assigned from dough to boxmaking.
All comments welcomed… cause it’s always what you don’t know that hurts you most!
Re: Delivery/Delivery Insurance… How/How well are you cover
Who writes your Hired non owned policy? I do about 850K in delivery and the latest quote I recieved was $22000 with a huge deductable. Everyone tells me thats too high, but I can’t find anyone else to write a policy in Florida.

Paul,
My hired/non-owned is included in my policy as long as delivery is not more than a certain % of my total biz. It is for $1million and I added another $1million umbrella for $750.
PJ referred me to my currect agent who ended up saving me alot of money
Re: Delivery/Delivery Insurance… How/How well are you cover
Unfortunatly, I have run into the problem of the delivery % with most of the companies that I contact. PJ has not been able to help me as of yet as he doesn’t have someone to write in Florida. I guess I’ll keep on searching.
