What commercial vehicle insurance is required in Virginia?

Virginia requires liability coverage on every registered vehicle, and as of January 1, 2025 the state minimum is 50/100/25 ($50,000 bodily injury per person, $100,000 per accident, $25,000 property damage). Commercial operators almost always carry substantially higher limits, and motor carriers hauling for hire or operating in interstate commerce often need federal filings such as the MCS-90 endorsement and FMCSA authority. The right limits depend on your vehicle weight, cargo, and where you operate. Our licensed advisors can confirm exactly what your operation needs.

How much does commercial truck insurance cost in Virginia?

Premiums depend on your vehicle type and weight class, your radius of operation, the limits you carry, your loss history, and the driving records of everyone behind the wheel. A local contractor van running short routes around Fairfax will price very differently from a tri-axle dump truck hauling long-haul or a tow operator on call statewide. Because we are an independent agency, we compare options across multiple carriers to find the right fit rather than quoting a single rate. Call (703) 551-2000 and we can talk through the factors that apply to your operation.
