Garages & Auto Repair Shops

People come to auto service centers to have their vehicles repaired, not damaged. Unfortunately, accidents don’t just happen on the open road. Sometimes they happen in parking lots and repair bays.

At Marshall Insurance, we are proud to offer an exclusive auto service center insurance policy that can be tailored to meet the specific needs and risks of your shop. 

Our Garage/Auto Policy provides coverage for the legal liability of automobile dealers, garages, repair shops and service stations.

Coverage includes bodily injury and property damage arising out of garage related operations. It can also provide coverage for damage to customers’ autos and property, as well as damage to garage-owned autos. This coverage can be written in conjunction with business property coverages in order to provide a complete protection package for your business.
