Operating a Colorado towing company can be rewarding, but many tow company and garage owners lose sleep over liability concerns. What can you be held liable for when towing and storing a customer’s automobile? With the right insurance policy, you can lay these fears to rest.
On-Hook Towing Coverage
Your job is taking care of others when accidents happen or their automobiles fail. What would happen if your customer’s property is damaged during on-hook towing? Southern Colorado Insurance Center has customizable liability policies to protect your company and your drivers. This coverage helps pay for damages to customer vehicles in the event of

Garage Keepers Coverage
In addition to carrying liability insurance to cover customer vehicles in transit, your Colorado towing company also needs insurance to protect against damage to customer property during storage.
