While car washing may seem like a simple business, there is much to consider in covering your work location, all your equipment and the cars of your customers. There is never a way to know when something may go wrong, causing the downfall of your business either physically or financially. From the transport of products to injured employees, everything can be covered with us.
Accidents and errors lead to huge financial loss. A customer may slip and fall on a wet floor and sue, and your business will be held liable. If you are held responsible you'll pay the customer's medical and other bills and all fees of the lawsuit. Your business property could catch fire, be damaged or vandalized. Weather events like a storm could cause a huge delay to your daily business. Your employees could sue for negligence or harassment. A customer's vehicle could be damaged while performing a car wash. Your equipment could break down and the delay could cost you huge profit loss.
Yes, especially if you accept car wash drop offs. Garagekeepers Liability insurance protects you when storing customer's vehicles. The insurance provides coverage for the damage of the vehicle at the time that the vehicle is under your care. It covers for damage pausibly caused to the customer's vehicle.
Car wash insurance depends on the type of car wash you operate and the services you provide. When you own a self-service car wash, you need to provide coverage when your car wash fails to operate. You'll also need coverage for the commercial property, as rare as it is, because accidents do happen and when customers accidentally ram their cars into your business property, you'll be glad to have Commercial Property insurance.
The cost of car wash insurance depends on the type of car wash you operate and the services you offer to your customers. A General Liability insurance, for example, could cost around $1,000 per year. Adding to that, other insurance policies you need to keep you protected can cost around $400 to $800 per year each. Although it may seem pricey, your monthly costs outweigh the liabilities, medical expenses and other expenses that you have to put up when a lawsuit or accident happens during your business operations.
