Catering insurance.
I'm getting closer to getting everything set-up for catering, trying to get everything set for the 1st of July.
I'll be starting with smaller events (25-75) and growing from there. -Got the HD application process going and that seems to be going well, though I'm sure there will be hiccups along the way. -Thanks to billm in one of other threads, I found some Carlisle end loaders at a good price ($170 @ equippers.com) that'll be here Friday. -Luckily, I've got a Sam's about 2 miles away. I need to start looking for an insurance policy. What companies provide it? Do you guys have any recommendations of some places to start looking? |

Start with your current insurance provider, they may offer a general liability policy or can at least refer you to a company that can.

I got a $1M liability umbrella from our auto folks for $180 for the year.
How many of the Carlisle units did you order and which model? I've got two to start with myself, not sure if I will need more or less but that felt right to me based on the casual jobs I've done.

I suggest if you do any events with alcohol you may want to just start with an insurance policy for hte general liability with a liquour rider. I started with a general then we went to a facility that required that I have liquer lability insurance in addition to my general liability. The facility would provide one for 150.00 for the day but I found to wrap it into one I provide an additional service and then we dont need a day alcohol permit from the state and the facilities fee. Just a suggestion.
