What is inland marine insurance?

For many businesses, the property insurance provided by your Business Owners Policy (BOP) or Commercial Package Policy (CPP) may be sufficient. This type of insurance coverage typically only covers property that is housed at a specific location. So what does that mean for tools and equipment that travel with employees to nearby job sites? This is when you need that added layer of coverage. In this case that added layer of coverage is called inland marine insurance.
