Business Insurance in Texas
Protect Your Business, Property, Vehicles and Future
Running a business means taking risks every day.
Insurance helps protect the business you have worked hard to build when unexpected losses happen.
At Next Move Insurance, we help Texas business owners explore commercial insurance
options based on their industry, property, vehicles, employees and individual risks.
Whether you are starting a new business, expanding your operation, purchasing commercial property or
reviewing your current insurance, our team can help you understand your options.
Business Insurance Is Not One-Size-Fits-All
A construction company does not have the same insurance needs as a restaurant.
A landlord does not have the same risks as a retail store.
And a business with multiple vehicles has different exposures than someone working from a home office.
That is why we start by understanding:
-
What your business does
-
Where you operate
-
Whether you own or lease your location
-
What property and equipment you own
-
Whether you use vehicles for business
-
Whether you have employees
-
What type of clients you serve
-
What risks could interrupt your operation
Then we can explore the insurance options available for your business.
Business Insurance Options
Business Owner’s Policy — BOP
A Business Owner’s Policy can combine several important business coverages into one policy for eligible businesses.
Depending on the policy, this may include:
Commercial property
General liability
Business income or interruption coverage
Other available protections
Commercial General Liability
General liability insurance can help protect a business from certain claims involving:
-
Bodily injury
-
Property damage
-
Personal or advertising injury
-
Other covered liability situations
The appropriate limits depend on your business and its exposures.
Commercial Property Insurance
If your business owns or uses buildings, equipment, furniture, inventory or other property, commercial property insurance can help protect those assets from covered losses.
Texas commercial property policies can differ substantially between insurers, so understanding the actual coverage is important.
Commercial Auto Insurance
If you or your employees drive for business purposes, personal auto insurance may not provide the coverage your business needs.
We help with commercial auto insurance for:
-
Contractors
-
Construction businesses
-
Landscapers
-
Electricians
-
Plumbers
-
Delivery businesses
-
Service companies
-
Real estate businesses
-
Other commercial vehicle users
Builder’s Risk Insurance
Building a new home or commercial property?
Renovating an existing structure?
Builder’s risk insurance is designed to protect certain property while construction, renovation or installation is taking place.
Business Interruption Coverage
What happens if a covered loss damages your property and your business cannot operate normally?
Business interruption insurance may help with qualifying lost income and certain expenses when operations are interrupted because of covered physical damage.
Coverage varies by policy.
