A typical trucking company will pay about $.10 per mile for insurance (auto liability and cargo insurance), which generally accounts for about 4% of their total operating costs, on the average. But the cost per mile is by no means the same for every trucking company.? High-performing trucking companies can pay far less for insurance than low-performing trucking companies. This difference in insurance costs can have a substantial impact on a trucking company’s bottom line profitability. Source: American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI). (2023, June).

The increasing cost of health insurance has put a pinch on trucking company profitability. For a typical trucking company, driver benefits account for ~8% of total operating costs. On a per mile basis, those driver benefits cost trucking companies $.19 per mile (almost twice as much as truck insurance).
