  • 02

    Customer vehicles held

    More cars, and more valuable ones, raise the garagekeepers cost.

  • 03

    Drivers and test drives

    More drivers and more road use add risk.

  • 04

    Limits and deductibles

    Higher limits cost more, and a higher deductible can lower the premium.

  • 05

    Basis of customer-vehicle protection

    Direct coverage can be priced differently from coverage that depends on your legal liability.

Common questions

Does garage liability pay for a customer’s car damaged in my shop?

That is garagekeepers coverage, which we compare separately from liability for injury and property damage.

What does direct coverage mean?

Some options depend on your legal liability and a direct-coverage option may work differently. We show which basis each quote uses.

Are test drives covered?

Only if the quote covers that vehicle, driver and use. Describe test drives on the application so the broker finds terms that fit.

Can my current broker handle my garage program?

Yes. Spot works alongside brokers and takes no commissions on premiums. Switch brokers only if you want to.
