Pump Truck Insurance
Pump trucks carry expensive, specialized equipment and work in high-risk settings. A concrete boom pump extends dozens of feet over a job site, and a septic or vacuum truck handles waste that can cause pollution claims. Standard auto policies aren’t built for these exposures. Pacific Southwest Insurance Services works with specialty carriers to insure pump trucks for both driving and working operations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the boom covered while it’s working on a job site?
Not on a basic auto policy. Boom and pump equipment is typically covered under an inland marine or mobile equipment policy. We’ll structure it so both driving and operating are covered.
Do septic trucks need pollution coverage?
It’s strongly recommended, and many municipalities and contracts require it. Spills can lead to expensive cleanup and third-party claims.
Can you handle certificates for general contractors?
Yes. We issue certificates with the endorsements general contractors ask for.
