Gentlemen,

What coverage do any of you have related to liability and equipment,
I researched a thread related to "Inland Marine" coverage.
Is there a preferred carrier out there who understands the mill business,

Another piece of the puzzle.

Since my Tree Farm owns my sawmill, I simply have a rider to cover it's activities.  My liability, etc. is already in place.

I suspect that everyone's situation and requirements will be different depending upon their circumstances.

dgdrls, I own a tree service and I also own a Woodmizer LT40HD. I carry the standard 1 million in liability the mill is covered and has its own rider. one thing I can tell you about insurance companies is that if it is not listed on your policy it is not covered. its not easy to find ins. coverage on sawmills that is reasonable,so shop around and be prepared to get frustrated.

I have an inland marine policy that I got thru my car ins. broker,you can get pretty much any covearage you want and it isnt too bad in price.

Cutting Edge

Dunno about NY, but I am setup where trucks and what they haul or tow are covered.  This at least coveres transit of the mill.  Liability comes from the farm itself, kinda like blanket covereage...but specifically states that policy holder(s) must be present for whatever "activity" is taking place.
