What Is Inland Marine?

Inland Marine is commercial property insurance for tools, equipment, and materials that move between job sites or are stored off site. It fills gaps when your property is away from your main location or in transit.

What Does Inland Marine Cover?

It can cover physical loss or damage to mobile business property from theft, fire, vandalism, and some transit-related accidents, based on the items scheduled and the policy terms.

Tools stolen from a job site

Your crew locks up for the night, but thieves break in and take power tools and specialty equipment. Inland Marine can help pay to replace the stolen items so work can continue.

Key Features of Inland Marine

Coverage that follows your property

Instead of being tied to one address, Inland Marine is designed for property that travels, rotates between locations, or sits at temporary sites.

Itemized scheduling for higher value gear

Many policies let you list specific tools or equipment with values, which helps match limits to what you actually own and reduces surprises at claim time.

Flexible options by industry and use

Contractors, installers, photographers, and service businesses often need different triggers and limits. Inland Marine can be tailored for tools, equipment, and installation materials.
