Loss Damage Waiver



What is the Loss Damage Waiver (LDW)?

  • The LDW is not insurance. It is a partial release of responsibility to pay for damage or loss to your 66Trailers rental in exchange for a stated monthly fee.

  • A service that covers damage or loss of your rental trailer(s) from Covered Events (as defined in our terms and conditions) due to traffic accidents.

  • The LDW is a damage waiver and is not insurance; it does not cover cargo, towing/storage, property damage, personal injury or other losses typically covered by insurance.

Why should I purchase the LDW?

  • The LDW satisfies 66Trailers' requirement to add comprehensive/collision coverage for your rented trailer(s).

  • No-hassle settlements - Just pay your deductible and submit the required documents, we handle the rest.

  • For owner operators or small companies, the LDW is often a cheaper alternative to comprehensive/collision (physical damage) coverage.

What if I decline the LDW?

  • No problem - you will be required to add comprehensive/collision coverage to your insurance policy in the amount of the full replaceable value of the rented trailer(s), as determined by 66Trailers.

What are the requirements for the LDW?

  • You must be compliant with all terms and conditions of your rental agreement, including being current on all payments.

  • You must notify 66Trailers in writing within 72 hours of an event of loss.

  • You must provide a copy of the police report to 66Trailers, as well as any other documentation reasonably required to process your claim.

  • LDW coverage terminates immediately if the Lessee defaults on any terms or conditions of their rental agreement.

What does the LDW not cover?

  • Lessee's gross negligence, willful misconduct, intentional acts, or operation of Equipment in violation of applicable law.

  • Towing and storage charges

  • Tire theft and/or damage

  • Cargo

  • Lost or missing equipment

  • Contamination from cargo

  • Damage and/or loss arising from natural disasters or weather events
