About Vanliner
Vanliner is part of the National Interstate family and writes commercial coverage specifically for moving and storage operations. It is one of the premier mover-specialty carriers in the U.S., but its underwriting requirements limit it to established operations with size and tenure.
Who Vanliner Is Best For
Established Colorado moving companies with at least five years in business, $100,000+ in annual premium, and typically 10+ trucks. Not a fit for startup movers — those operations belong with MoversChoice or general commercial markets until they grow into Vanliner eligibility.
Vanliner in Colorado
For the relatively small number of Colorado moving companies meeting Vanliner's thresholds, it is a strong specialty carrier with deep mover expertise. For everyone else in the moving industry locally, MoversChoice or other commercial markets are the right starting point.
Frequently Asked Questions
Vanliner insurance, answered honestly.
What are Vanliner's eligibility requirements for moving companies?
+
Vanliner typically requires 5+ years in business as a moving operation, approximately $100,000 minimum annual premium, and around 10+ trucks in the fleet. These thresholds limit Vanliner to established mid-size and larger moving companies.
How does Vanliner differ from MoversChoice for movers?
+
MoversChoice has a much broader appetite — including startup movers and smaller operations. Vanliner is built for established mid-to-large movers with multi-year history and meaningful premium volume. Movers usually start with MoversChoice or general commercial markets and grow into Vanliner eligibility over time.
Why use Sells Insurance instead of going direct to Vanliner?
+
Going direct to Vanliner only shows you Vanliner's products. As an independent broker appointed with Vanliner and other carriers in the same category — including MoversChoice and National Interstate — Sells Insurance can compare options side-by-side, explain the trade-offs in plain language, and recommend the structure that actually fits your situation. You get the same Vanliner pricing either way; the difference is the comparison and the local Colorado context that comes with it.
