Coverage Guidance for Intermodal, Drayage, and UIIA-Related Requirements
Intermodal Trucking Insurance
Intermodal and drayage operations may need to address insurance requirements associated with ports, rail terminals, equipment providers, and the Uniform Intermodal Interchange and Facilities Access Agreement (UIIA). The Truckers Insurance helps motor carriers review these requirements and evaluate coverage options based on their contracts, equipment, operating locations, and carrier eligibility.
UIIA Compliance Made Simple
Access to intermodal terminals begins with meeting the insurance and operational standards set by the Uniform Intermodal Interchange and Facilities Access Agreement (UIIA). These requirements include:
Auto Liability coverage with the UIIE-1 endorsement
Trailer Interchange coverage for non-owned chassis
General Liability with port-specified limits
Workers’ Compensation where applicable
Pollution Liability (if required by the facility)
We partner exclusively with A.M. Best A-rated or better insurance carriers who provide the UIIE-1 endorsement—a mandatory requirement for terminal access. Without it, your drivers can be turned away at the gate.
