Does Mckinney offer insurance?

We offer a convenient alternative to third-party insurance in the form of a Collision Damage Waiver (CDW). It is a simple and effective way to limit your liability in case your equipment gets damaged. Plus, our CDW can help to prevent your insurance premiums from going up after a trailer is damaged, destroyed or stolen. Learn more about Mckinney’s Collision Damage Waiver (CDW).
