What Businesses in Vermont Need a Gas Station Policy?

Most businesses in Vermont that sell gasoline, diesel and/or kerosine should have a gas station policy in place. This includes gas stations, truck stops and stores that have fuel pumps. Not carrying coverage can leave a business dangerously exposed to risk and may be in violation of local laws, and this is normally the most appropriate type of insurance for these businesses.

What Coverages Do Gas Station Policies Provide?

  • Building Coverage, which often insures company-owned buildings
  • Contents Coverage, which often insures equipment and inventory on company property
  • Equipment Breakdown Coverage, which often insures equipment against unexpected breakdowns
  • Spoilage Coverage, which might be appropriate if a gas station sells perishable goods

How Are Gas Station Policies’ Premiums Determined?

Insurers consider many factors when setting premiums for gas station policies. A business’ location, building size, annual sales, product offerings and claims history, as well as many other items, can influence how much a policy costs.

Gas stations can find out how much different insurance companies would charge for the coverages they need by talking with an independent insurance agent. An independent agent is free to request quotes from multiple companies, which makes it easy to compare different policy options. Captive agents who work with a single insurance company don’t always have this freedom.
