Commercial auto policies are very similar to a standard auto policy with some additional coverages available to protect your business. We can schedule multiple drivers on one policy to keep you operating smoothly.

Commercial Auto Insurance in Lafayette, Indiana
If your business owns, leases or uses vehicles, you likely need commercial auto insurance. Personal auto policies often exclude or limit coverage when a vehicle is used mainly for business, and that can leave you exposed after an accident. From contractors’ pickups and service vans to delivery vehicles and box trucks, we help businesses across Lafayette, West Lafayette and Tippecanoe County protect the vehicles that keep them running.
Who needs commercial auto insurance?
- Contractors, landscapers, plumbers, electricians and other trades
- Businesses with delivery, service or sales vehicles

Commercial auto FAQs
Can I put my work truck on my personal policy?
Sometimes, depending on how the truck is used, who owns it and what you haul. If the vehicle is titled to your business or used heavily for work, a commercial policy is usually the right fit. We’ll help you decide.
What if employees drive their own cars for work?
Their personal policies usually respond first, but your business can still be sued. Hired and non-owned auto coverage helps protect your business in those situations.

What our Clients Say
Stacey Minier
Joe and his staff are top notch. I never worry if I have an issue involving insurance. They are there to help make the experience worry free and professional. Itâs worth your time to give Lafayette Insurance a call.
Daniel Layman
Tremendous support from Joe Couch. He was readily-accessible, diligent, and a tremendous help through the process of switching policies. Would recommend to everyone.
Jon Chapin
Joe Sr. and Jr. are both professional and do the very best they can to get you the best deal possible. They have reached out to me to let me know of opportunities to decrease my rates before my terms were up so I could plan accordingly. They always answer when I text or call with a problem. Can't say enough good things about this company or the people running it!
Devon Moore
Very professional and responsive. After calling several agencies in the area, our quote was 15% lower than anywhere else!
Isaac Schumacher
Joe Jr. looks out for you. Initially he had me with one insurance agency. 1 year in and upon finding a new deal, he contacted me, helped me save some money, and found a more reliant insurance company for my family's vehicles. He is personable and offers good advice without trying to overexert influence. I have not had to deal with a wreck yet and working through a claim, but I will update this post if it happens.
