Miami, FL – 23 February 2026 – With more than a decade of experience safeguarding commercial fleets, Alvix Insurance Group expands its DOT‑compliant Florida trucking insurance portfolio to cover owner‑operators, small fleets and specialized haulers across the state. The new suite of policies is designed to meet both state‑level and federal liability standards while offering flexible add‑ons that address the unique challenges of Florida’s roads, ports and weather.
Why Florida Trucking Insurance Matters.
Florida’s bustling ports, diverse terrain and unpredictable weather create a demanding environment for motor carriers. An adequate insurance program protects against:
- Liability claims for bodily injury or property damage,
- Cargo loss due to theft, mishandling or weather‑related events,
- Physical damage from collisions, fire, vandalism or natural disasters,
- Regulatory penalties when DOT or state requirements are not met,
Alvix Insurance’s policies are built to keep drivers on the road, compliant and financially protected.
State & Federal Liability Requirements:
Scope & Minimum coverage (per incident)
Florida intrastate $300,000 liability
Federal interstate $750,000 liability
Hazardous‑material – intrastate $1,000,000 liability
Hazardous‑material – interstate $5,000,000 liability
These thresholds are the baseline; most carriers choose higher limits for added peace of mind.

Alvix Insurance offers a menu of optional coverages that can be layered onto the core policy:
1. Liability Insurance – Meets DOT standards for bodily injury & property damage.
