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.

What Wheelchair Van Insurance Covers

Commercial auto liability covers bodily injury and property damage during passenger transport, including boarding and alighting. Physical damage covers the van and the wheelchair lift or ramp assembly. Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage protects passengers when another driver causes an accident.

NEMT operators may need additional general liability and professional liability coverage beyond commercial auto, depending on the nature of services provided.

Commercial auto liability
Physical damage including lift/ramp equipment
Uninsured/underinsured motorist
For-hire transport coverage

Wheelchair Van Operations We Insure

We insure Virginia NEMT companies, home health agencies, adult day care programs, senior living facilities, and private accessible transportation providers using WAVs for Medicaid and private-pay clients.

Virginia and Federal Requirements

NEMT providers in Virginia operating under Medicaid contracts must carry minimum liability limits per DMAS requirements. For-hire accessible transport requires Virginia for-hire vehicle registration. ADA-compliance doesn't create insurance requirements, but passenger injury exposure requires adequate limits.

What Affects Your Wheelchair Van Premium

Number of vans, type of client (Medicaid vs. private pay), driver training, operating territory, and prior loss history all affect pricing.
