Inland marine coverage for the machines that cut and move timber.
Skidders, loaders, feller-bunchers, and harvesters represent the biggest capital investment on your job site — this is the coverage that gets them repaired, replaced, or rebuilt.
Logging equipment insurance is inland marine coverage for the mobile machinery your operation depends on — skidders, knuckleboom loaders, feller-bunchers, harvesters, processors, and dozers, whether you own them outright or lease them. When a skidder throws a track in the mud or a loader catches fire on the deck, this is the coverage that pays to repair or replace it.
Because logging equipment works off-road, in remote sets, and away from a fenced yard, it carries a different risk profile than shop or plant machinery. Longleaf® writes it as the specialty inland marine exposure it is, with attention to how equipment actually gets damaged in the woods — overturns, fire, water, vandalism at an unattended landing, and theft of equipment or attachments left on-site overnight or over a weekend.
We also build in room for growth. Newly acquired equipment provisions and scheduling flexibility mean that when you trade in a machine or add a piece mid-season, your coverage keeps pace with your fleet instead of lagging behind it.
Logging Equipment Insurance Equipment rated for how it is actually used in logging, not a generic contractor class.
Add, remove, or revalue machines as your fleet changes.
Downtime on a skidder or loader is lost production — we move quickly.
Coordinated with your trucks, liability, and excess so nothing is left out.
