Being off dispatch shouldn't leave you exposed.
Off dispatch? You're on your own.
Your motor carrier's policy drops the second you're not under load. Drive that truck home, run an errand, or deadhead — and a single wreck is 100% on you.
One bad day can take the truck.
A blown tire, a bad lane, someone else's mistake — physical damage to your rig isn't cheap. Without coverage, a repair bill or total loss comes straight out of your pocket.
No coverage, no work.
Most lease agreements require Non-Trucking Liability, and lenders require Physical Damage. Let either lapse and your truck sits parked while the payments keep coming.
Two ways to run. Only one protects your truck.

What happens after a claim
The words insurance people use, explained
Non-Trucking Liability
Liability coverage for the times you drive your truck when you are not working for your motor carrier. It pays for injury or property damage you cause to other people.
Bobtail
Driving the tractor with no trailer attached. Common on the way home, to the shop, or to pick up your next trailer.
Deadhead
Driving with an empty trailer attached. Whether you are covered depends on whether you are under dispatch at the time.
Under dispatch
You are working under your motor carrier's authority on an assigned load. Their liability policy covers you during that time.
Physical damage
Coverage for your own truck and trailer. It pays for collision, fire, theft, vandalism and weather damage to your equipment.

The coverages owner-operators actually need
We specialize in the protection that keeps your truck on the road — Non-Trucking Liability and Physical Damage — placed fast and priced for owner-operators.
Non-Trucking Liability (NTL)
Covers third-party bodily injury and property damage when you're driving without a load and off dispatch — the gap your motor carrier's policy leaves wide open.
Physical Damage
Protects your truck and trailer against collision, fire, theft, vandalism, and weather — so a repair or total loss doesn't end your business.
Bobtail Coverage
Protection while you're bobtailing — running the tractor with no trailer attached — and not under dispatch for your motor carrier.
Occupational Accident
Covers medical bills, lost income, and disability if you're hurt on the job — the protection owner-operators don't get from a motor carrier's workers' comp.
Built for Owner-Operators
Affordable monthly rates with no padded packages. We focus on the coverages you actually need — and nothing you don't.
Fast, Same-Day Binding
No waiting around. Most drivers are reviewed, matched, and bound — back on the road in 30 minutes or less.
What's not covered
Straight talk — here's what these policies don't cover, so there are no surprises down the road:
- Liability while you're under dispatch and hauling a load — that's covered by your motor carrier's policy, not NTL.
- Cargo you're hauling — cargo insurance is a separate policy we can point you toward.
- Personal-use vehicles or non-commercial driving.
- Intentional damage, wear and tear, or mechanical breakdown.

"OTR made getting my Bobtail coverage painless. I called, explained my situation, and was bound and back on the road in under 30 minutes. The rate beat everything else I'd been quoted."
"My motor carrier required Non-Trucking Liability and OTR walked me through exactly what I needed — no upsell, no fluff. Honest people who actually understand trucking."
"Great service and a great price. They answered every question and got my policy in force the same day. Highly recommend to any owner-operator."
