Answer by fth106
It will vary a great deal depending on the type of small business. Some “main street” business policies are known as Business Owners Policy (BOP) and they can be as little as $ 500 per year, sometimes less expensive if the insurance market is “soft”. Other small businesses can carry a much higher level of risk and, therefore, a MUCH higher premium. (Sometimes in the tens of thousands of dollars per year.)
There really isn’t an average price for small business insurance.

Can you get in trouble for running a small business without insurance? In WA state?

Question by chocoroco: Can you get in trouble for running a small business without insurance? In WA state?
My boyfriend and his friend have a small car detailing business that they started themselves. I’m pretty sure they have a business license. However, they don’t have any form of insurance. Can they get in trouble if they drive the clients’ cars without car insurance or something for their business? What happens if they damage one of the vehicles if they have no insurance?

Answer by Rebel Yell
Insurance mainly covers you in the event you are sued. Lawyers cost $ 200 – $ 500 per hour plus court fees, dispositions, and witness fees.

Insurance companies hire lawyers to fight for you.

They’re harvesting information from you to sell as leads.

Small business insurance can run anywhere from $ 300 a year, to $ 3,000,000 a year, or even more. See, there’s about 25 different TYPES of small business insurance, and each of those has several hundred CLASSES, and each of THOSE has seperate rates, which would be multiplied by the RATING FACTOR, which is determined by the type of business.

So, You’re asking, how long is a string. Well, it depends on a WIDE variety of factors. You’ll need to be WAY more specific.

Which companies should I consider for small business insurance?

Question by Liz: Which companies should I consider for small business insurance?
My company consists of just my partner and I, no employees yet. We need garage insurance, but I don’t know where to start looking. Any suggestions?

Best answer:

Answer by mbrcatz
You’ll need to talk to a local, independent agent, licensed in your state. No standard carriers are going to write a garage policy on a new business – heck, most won’t write a garage policy on an existing business.

So your application will be submitted to the facility auto, assigned risk, whatever the state run pool is called, in your state.

How much does it cost for small business insurance in New York State?

Question by : How much does it cost for small business insurance in New York State?
I live in Buffalo NY. My friend and I are thinking about starting a home repair and minor remodeling business. We would do everything from roofing to painting. 2 work vehicles and just the 2 of us as employees. Do not need medical, just liability and Workers Comp.

Best answer:

Answer by WRG
While workers comp is probably a good idea it isn’t required if just the owners are working. Roofing Work comp is one of the higher cost businesses you could be in.

In addition to the liability insurance you will need insurance for the trucks as well. If they are your own trucks they may not be covered for business use under your personal auto policy.

All that said the easiest way to find out the cost is call 2 or 3 local agents. There is a lot of information that you haven’t posted here they will need to get you a correct quote.

Answer by kk71rr
Workers Compensation in Australia. Depending of the business, there is a formula to calculate this from wages and other payments to workers.

For a small business around 1% of wages + super + long service leave paid, etc

Hope this helps

Can anyone give me a round about idea of the yearly cost for a bond/general liability policy for a small cleaning business with only 1 employee in NY? Does $ 1-2 thousand sound about right?

Best answer:

Answer by big time
it is a lot cheaper than that depends on the industry that your business is in but general liability is close to 2 or 3 hundred a year. i work for a company that deals with small business owners with general liability everyday.
