What Are the Key Differences Between CNA and The Hartford Inland Marine Insurance?
Mobile equipment and specialized classes
The Hartford describes inland marine through tools and equipment carried between locations or used at jobsites. CNA’s public class list covers contractors equipment and builders risk as well, and adds EDP property, fine arts, installation floaters, medical equipment, transportation and wholesale distributors. A buyer with mobile tools may find overlap, but a business with specialized property should verify each category and location in the actual schedule instead of relying on the broad inland-marine label.

Submission details and employee-policy boundaries
CNA says tailored marine solutions are backed by dedicated underwriting, risk-control and claims specialists. The Hartford’s reviewed claims explain the property use and eligibility context, but do not establish the same class list or service description. For either proposal, ask how off-premises theft, transit, jobsite storage and rented property are treated, and whether equipment value is scheduled or subject to a shared limit. [2] [4]
