I been with them for 1 year with three trucks I paid around $57,000 to them for a whole year, but one claim happened to us which was not our fault it was $15,000 dollars but they refused to pay the claim, the broker was holding our three previous loads once canal know that the broker was holding our money they denied to pay for us the claim , I do not really recommend this insurance to any carriers they are really trash and treat you. All they want is to take your money and not cover you once a claim happens to you. Trash!!

Canal Insurance Company is a shame! Give you incorrect info then deny they made the error & fault you. If I could give 0 stars I would!

I know there are a lot of negative reviews here and I’m from Arkansas and had never heard of Canal. I was skeptical initially as one of their insured hit my daughter’s car and did a lot of damage. But they were great to deal with from the beginning, particularly Michelle Wright. My daughter’s car was determined to be totaled and got a very nice check so she was happy. ;)
