Business insurance
Insurance for Steel Suppliers
A steel yard carries heavy risk. You are running cranes, forklifts and a crane truck around stacked tonnage, cutting and grinding daily, and sending processed steel out to sites where it ends up in structures. Public liability covers injury and property damage, contents and stock cover protects the value on the rack, and motor cover handles the delivery fleet. Workers' compensation is essential once you have yard and saw operators on the books. With many policies renewing around 30 June, review your cover before the new financial year.
Common questions
Steel Suppliers — insurance questions
Does my cover need to reflect the value of stock on hand?
Yes. A yard can hold a large value in steel at any time, so contents and stock cover should track what is actually on the rack. Under-insuring the stock is a common and costly gap when steel prices climb.
Is the crane truck and forklift fleet covered separately?
Usually yes — mobile plant and the delivery fleet sit on motor and plant cover, distinct from your premises policy. Cockatoo helps match you to a broker who can package the yard, the fleet and the stock together.
