3 Great Ways to Save

As an insured of Atlanta Life, you can receive these value-added discounts and savings:

• 20% savings on the registration fee for the National Equipment Register (NER)
• Premium discount on scheduled equipment that’s registered with the NER or similar program
• Waiver of your theft deductible in the event of loss to scheduled equipment:
• If that equipment has an operational location tracking device
• Or if it’s registered with the NER

Whether you own a large construction firm or a midsize contracting business, your tools, machinery and mobile equipment are major investments. If they’re stolen from a job site, destroyed by a fire, or vandalized, your business suffers.

Prevail Over Loss with the Right Protection

You can’t always avoid losses. But you can manage your risk with the right insurance protection. With contractor’s equipment coverage from Atlanta Life, you’ll have the protection you need – and the service you expect – to keep your construction business going.

Coverage Highlights

Replacement cost coverage. With Atlanta Life, scheduled equipment less than five years old at the time of loss is covered on a replacement cost basis. We also have additional endorsements that can provide enhanced valuation options for qualifying contractor’s equipment accounts, including:

• Agreed value
• Enhanced replacement cost

Newly Owned Equipment

Your policy from Atlanta Life can extend coverage for newly owned property acquired after your policy is in effect. Coverage can include this equipment on:

• Scheduled policies, which have a time frame and value limitation, or
• Annual reporting policies, which provide coverage without time or value limitations, unless your policy states otherwise

Equipment Leased or Rented to Others

If your construction company leases or rents equipment to other contractors, this coverage is crucial. When a covered cause of loss results in damage to such scheduled property, the policy provides:

• Up to $50,000 coverage in any one occurrence

Equipment leased, rented or borrowed from others. You need coverage for damage to equipment owned by others that’s unscheduled while the equipment is in your possession. Atlanta Life’s policy provides:

• Up to $100,000 automatically included. Higher limits are available, contact your underwriter.

Contractor’s Rental Expense

Under a leasing or rental agreement, you may have to pay fees even though the equipment you were using is no longer available. Atlanta Life’s policy can cover charges incurred under a written agreement, if the equipment is damaged by a covered cause of loss, with this limit:

• Up to $25,000

Debris Removal
