Warehouse & Distribution Insurance
Property, liability, and flood programs for warehouse owners and operators — from single facilities to multi-location portfolios.
Coverage Warehouses Actually Need
Commercial Property

General Liability
Premises and operations liability for visitor injury, loading dock incidents, and third-party property damage.
Warehouse Legal Liability
Coverage for damage to customers' goods in your care, custody, and control — critical for third-party storage and logistics operations.
Equipment Breakdown
Protection for refrigeration, conveyor, racking, and material-handling systems that keep your operation running.
Commercial Flood
Flood protection for facilities in flood-prone areas, available through our Coastal Risk partnership.
Umbrella & Excess
Higher liability limits for large-footprint facilities and multi-tenant industrial properties.
What Drives Warehouse Pricing
- +Construction type, sprinkler protection, and commodity class drive property pricing more than almost any other factor.
- +Storing goods for others creates legal liability exposures that standard property policies do not cover.
- +Vacancy, tenant mix, and lease structure all affect how an owner's program should be written.
- +Business income coverage matters — a warehouse fire can interrupt revenue far longer than the rebuild takes.
Common Questions
What does warehouse insurance cost?
Pricing depends on square footage, construction, fire protection, what is stored, and whether you own the building, operate in it, or both. We quote across multiple carriers to find the right program for your facility.
I own the building but lease it to tenants. What do I need?
Building owners typically need lessor's risk property and liability coverage, with tenant insurance requirements built into the lease. We structure owner programs separately from operator programs.
Do you cover warehouses that store goods for customers?
Yes. Warehouse legal liability coverage protects you when customers' goods are damaged in your care. Tell us what you store and under what terms, and we will match the right market.
