Aon

  • role: Aon states it offers cargo insurance solutions and describes its role as cargo broker. The page does not name the carrier that would insure a particular shipment or account.

  • eligibility: Aon addresses businesses across industries that move raw materials, components, finished goods and appliances by road, rail, sea or air, domestically and internationally.

  • coverage: Aon describes cargo insurance for physical loss or damage to goods during transportation and describes goods as protected during loading, unloading, storage and transit. Its listed options include General Cargo, Excess Storage, Stock Throughput and Project Cargo/Marine Delay in Start-Up. These are Aon’s product descriptions, not a guarantee that a buyer’s policy includes every category or peril. Aon’s broker-authored explanation of the insurance line.

Corgi

  • role: Corgi's cargo insurance for trucking operators is a per-load product (contractual liability cargo coverage bound one haul at a time) offered on trucking.corgi.insure, a separate site from the startup-insurance product pages on corgi.insure. Page metadata and site structure as observed on 2026-09-23. The trucking site is a JavaScript-rendered application; the reviewed pages returned only page metadata, not the full body content.company-reportedSource ↗Source ↗
  • coverage: Corgi says the per-load cargo product can replace or supplement a trucking operator's existing annual cargo policy, implying it is meant for single-haul or overflow coverage rather than as a standalone annual policy. Page metadata for trucking.corgi.insure/insurance/per-load-cargo; specific covered perils, commodity exclusions and per-load limits were not accessible in the reviewed page content.company-reportedSource ↗
  • application: Corgi advertises that a trucking operator can quote, bind and get a certificate of insurance (COI) for per-load cargo coverage in minutes. Marketing claim from page metadata; quote speed is not independently verified and is not the same as coverage being bound for a specific load.company-reportedSource ↗
  • insurer: The reviewed page content does not name the insurer or underwriting entity for per-load cargo coverage; the trucking site's disclosures were not reachable without executing its client-side application. trucking.corgi.insure/insurance/per-load-cargo as fetched on 2026-09-23. Corgi's main-site disclaimers page names Corgi Insurance Company, Inc. and Technology Risk Retention Group, Inc. as underwriters for its startup product lines, but nothing in the reviewed sources ties that disclosure to the separately branded trucking product.not-disclosedSource ↗

What Are the Key Differences Between Aon and Corgi Cargo and Transit Insurance?

Per-Haul Coverage or Program Placement

Corgi’s product is contractual-liability cargo coverage bound one haul at a time, intended to supplement or replace an annual trucking cargo policy for single-haul or overflow needs. Aon describes cargo solutions for raw materials, components, finished goods, and appliances moving by multiple modes, with options including General Cargo and Stock Throughput. A trucking operator choosing per-load cover should compare shipment-by-shipment control with the broader program forms Aon can arrange, and check any overlap with existing annual insurance. [5] [2]

Binding and Certificates

Corgi advertises that operators can quote, bind, and obtain a certificate in minutes for a per-load haul. Aon describes broker services and claims management but does not state an equivalent instant per-load bind flow. Timing matters when a dispatcher needs proof before accepting a load; confirm the precise effective time, commodity eligibility, and certificate recipient rather than relying on an advertised workflow alone. [5] [2]

What Should You Confirm in Aon and Corgi Cargo and Transit Insurance Quotes?

  • Can a Corgi per-load certificate meet the shipper’s exact cargo limit and commodity requirements for this haul? [2] [5]
  • What annual, stock-throughput, or project-cargo form would Aon propose, and how does it coordinate with existing cargo coverage? [2] [5]

Corgi’s page metadata describes per-load cargo for trucking operators, and Corgi advertises a quote, bind, and certificate flow for each haul. Aon describes broader cargo and stock-throughput brokerage options.
