Commercial carriers can't charge whatever they want — each state's Department of Insurance must approve loss-cost filings before they take effect. These are primary-source, government-held records available on SERFF Filing Access. Cited below: the most-recent active filings affecting fleet operations, with the real SERFF tracking number for each.
| Line | State | Overall change | Effective | SERFF tracking |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Scope note: the filings tabulated above reflect NCCI class 9586 (Barber/Beauty Services) as an illustrative example of WC filing structure. This operation's actual WC class is NCCI 7228 (Trucking — Mail, Parcel and Package Delivery) — long-haul / interstate / parcel-and-package trucking typically maps to 7228; short-haul local operations may instead classify under 7219 (Trucking — Local Hauling NOC); long-haul interstate may also use 7230 (Trucking — Long Haul) depending on operating radius. Trucking + commercial-auto loss costs are jointly bureau-filed (ISO + NCCI); the per-state ranges shown reflect cross-class WC mechanics rather than 7228 rates specifically. Confirm your specific class-code mapping at quote with your underwriter.
National context — Fleet insurance overview
Fleet insurance is the multi-vehicle commercial-auto product designed for operations running 5 or more power units under one policy. The volume + safety-program leverage makes it materially cheaper per power unit than single-vehicle policies — typically $7,000-$10,000/year per Class 8 tractor in a fleet vs $9,000-$15,000 for a single owner-operator (III commercial-truck-insurance benchmark 2024). For mixed fleets (pickups + box trucks + tractors), the per-unit average sits lower.
Fleet pricing isn't just a volume discount — it reflects the safety-program leverage available at scale: telematics (Samsara, Motive, Geotab) routinely save 10-20% on premium, plus driver-training programs (Smith System, RoadCheck) flow into lower experience modifiers. This page covers fleet-specific cost factors + the operating-cost research from ATRI. Every figure cites a named external publication.

Industry-typical market ranges (national)
Sourced from III, NCCI, ISO, NAIC, BLS, FMCSA, FDA, NRA — government and bureau publications, not from our quote form
Market ranges for a typical 10-25 unit fleet (per power unit, annual):
- Primary commercial-auto liability ($1M CSL) for Class 8 tractors in a fleet: typically $7,000-$10,000/year per unit — 15-25% below single-vehicle pricing (III commercial-insurance basics)
- Mixed fleet (pickups + box trucks + tractors): blended per-unit average typically $3,500-$6,500/year
- Physical damage on a fleet of $80K-$150K tractors: typically $2,000-$4,500/year per unit
- Motor Truck Cargo at fleet scale ($250K-$500K limits common): typically $1,500-$3,500/year fleet-wide
- FMCSA MCS-90 endorsement: required per power unit, no premium
- Workers Comp: NCCI Class 7228 (long-haul) or 7219 (short-haul), $3-$10/$100 of payroll
ATRI's Operational Costs of Trucking annual report puts the median 'truck insurance premium' line at approximately $0.10-$0.14 per mile in 2024 — useful for cost-per-mile modeling at fleet scale.

Industry context — what published research says about Fleet coverage
- What qualifies as a 'fleet': insurers typically apply fleet pricing at 5+ power units under one policy. Some specialty fleet carriers (Sentry, Great West, Northland) start at 3+. Verify with each quote — fleet pricing is the single biggest premium-per-unit lever. III commercial-insurance basics.
- ATRI Operational Costs Report: the American Transportation Research Institute publishes annual operating-cost research. Insurance is a recognized line item in their 'Marginal Cost of Trucking' framework alongside fuel, labor, and equipment. Useful for cost-per-mile modeling. ATRI.
- Driver employment model affects cost: W-2 fleets (company drivers) qualify for WC + fleet-wide safety programs at the lowest unit cost. 1099 owner-operators (leased) keep most of the WC + bobtail exposure on the driver. Mixed fleets pay both. IRMI.
- Safety programs flow to premium: Smith System driver training, telematics platforms (Samsara, Motive, Geotab), pre-employment drug-testing programs, and fleet-wide MVR monitoring routinely earn 5-25% discounts in stack. Implementation discipline matters as much as program selection. FMCSA Large Truck Crash Facts.
- Combined ratio in trucking insurance sits in the high-90s (2024 industry data) — one of the toughest commercial-auto sub-segments for insurers. That keeps premiums firm. Carrier competition is highest for clean-loss-history fleets; carriers actively avoid fleets with safety-violation history. III Commercial Lines.
