The short answer

Personal auto policies exclude any business use for delivery — a delivery driver's personal policy will deny after an accident. You need Hired and Non-Owned Auto (HNOA) coverage — often included in a BOP — plus Commercial Auto if you own vehicles. Workers' comp is required in most states for the driver's own injuries.

Frequently asked

What about 1099 delivery contractors?
Their personal policy still won't cover deliveries. Require proof of a commercial policy or add HNOA to your business insurance.
