Protect your forestry equipment with specialized contractor insurance

The team at La Turquoise is offering a new insurance program for forestry contractors that includes superior coverage for logging equipment.

Coverage for your specific forestry operation

You’re logging on a remote, difficult-to-access site. One of your machines gets stuck in mud after a storm, and you have to partly suspend your operations to remove it. Does your insurance cover the cost of such production delays or even for possible property damage caused by the stuck machine?  

Our forestry insurance covers:

  • replacement cost: given the high price and rapid depreciation of new logging equipment, will your insurance cover its replacement cost in the event of loss?

  • Forest-fire-fighting expenses: if you operate in a private forest, you may be reimbursed for fire-fighting expenses;

  • pollution: do you need to store fuel for your equipment on your worksite? Since you’re  responsible for protecting the environment, contractor pollution insurance will help cover you for fuel-spill and clean-up costs;

  • bogged-down equipment, rental fees, debris recovery, etc.

The best protection for your equipment

Forestry operations require expensive equipment of various types. It will all be covered under a single policy. You can choose between an "all-risk" policy or customized coverage.

Our insurance policies cover:

  • timber harvesters

  • bulldozers

  • articulated trucks

  • loader trucks

  • delimbers

  • sawmill equipment.
