Who needs snow removal insurance?

During dangerous wintery conditions, snow removal professionals who plow sidewalks or clear commercial parking lots and private driveways often need small business insurance because of the risks they take to keep the rest of the community safe. Common scenarios where insurance can protect you and your business include a customer’s slip-and-fall accident over your equipment or personal injury due to icy conditions resulting from snow removal.

Additional risks exist where you might not expect them, such as property damage caused by your services and even slanderous comments your employee makes about a customer. If you provide residential snow removal services, Hiscox can help empower you with each new customer you take on. We encourage snow removers to turn to Hiscox, a leading small business insurance company with origins dating back to 1901.

General Liability Insurance for snow removal

General liability insurance, sometimes called commercial general liability (CGL), could protect your business from another person or business’s claims of bodily injury, associated medical costs, and damage to property. These types of claims can arise with new clients, existing clients, and even due to the actions of hired employees.

Since snow removal professionals typically spend their days on-site at customers’ homes and businesses, this coverage provides essential protection. Here are a few situations that could occur while you are going about a routine day of work after a snowstorm.

Bodily injury: A customer trips over your snow blowing equipment while you are clearing a job site. The customer requires a trip to the emergency room for a broken wrist and claims that you are responsible for the medical bill because your equipment caused the injury.

Regardless of whose fault the accident was, situations like this can put your business at risk. But with Hiscox, your snow removal insurance policy may cover the customer’s medical costs, so you can keep working.

Property damage: While removing snow and ice at a customer’s home, one of your employees knocks a large icicle off the house and it breaks a window. The customer files a claim against your business, leaving you responsible to pay for a costly replacement window.

Even the most skilled employees make mistakes, but Hiscox will help you feel more confident with every new member of your team. A CGL insurance policy may cover the cost to replace damaged property, so you don’t exceed your monthly spending budget.

Personal injury: One of your plow drivers is in a coffee shop, and he’s talking about a customer in a false and unflattering manner. The customer finds out about the conversation and sues your business for slander.

Trust in Hiscox for your small business insurance needs and you could be protected from a costly slander claim, including the cost to defend yourself.
