What's different

Insuring Port & Intermodal Drayage

Intermodal work means pulling equipment you do not own under an interchange agreement with rules of its own.

UIIA requirements

Steamship lines and rail ramps require you to join the UIIA and carry the coverages it lists, including trailer interchange.

Chassis and container damage

You are responsible for the equipment from gate out to gate in. Interchange limits need to cover a chassis and a box.

  • Trailer InterchangePhysical damage on a trailer you pull but do not own, under a written interchange agreement.

What is the UIIA?

The Uniform Intermodal Interchange and Facilities Access Agreement. It is the standard contract between truckers and equipment providers, and it sets the insurance you must carry.

Does trailer interchange cover the cargo?

No. It covers the container and chassis. The freight inside is covered by motor truck cargo.
