About HGVInsurance.co.nz
A specialist referral service connecting heavy vehicle operators with the expert brokers who understand their industry.
Our Mission
HGVInsurance.co.nz exists because heavy vehicle insurance is genuinely complex — and the consequences of getting it wrong are serious. An underinsured articulated truck written off in a motorway incident, a logging operator who discovers their policy doesn't cover bush road recovery, a livestock carrier with no animal mortality cover: these are real situations that happen to real operators every year.
Our mission is simple: help HGV operators understand what they need, and connect them with the specialist brokers who can deliver it. We are not an insurer, and we are not a financial adviser. We are a specialist information and referral service — a starting point for operators who want to understand their options before they speak to a broker.
Every referral we make goes to a specialist commercial transport broker with genuine expertise in the HGV sector. We do not refer to generalist insurers or brokers for whom trucks are a sideline. Specialist knowledge matters when the vehicles are worth $300,000 and the liability exposures are measured in millions.
