Cannabis Cargo

Dedicated Motor Truck Cargo and Auto Physical Damage coverage crafted for cannabis exposures.

We go the extra mile to protect your cannabis clients.  

Marijuana use is legal for either medical or recreational use in 38 states and counting. Federally legal cannabis-derived products such as hemp and CBD can be transported across the country. Today, businesses with cannabis transportation operations are more exposed than ever to emerging risks and additional liability as they search for coverage on shifting legal, political, and environmental sands.  

Amwins Program Underwriters proudly offers competitively priced APD/MTC coverage for cannabis, alcohol, and other goods on a single policy. Our cannabis experts have the agility to navigate the cannabis market and the expertise to protect your clients on and off the road.
