Insurance Options for Hail Damage

Buckeye offers a flexible insurance solution for hail-related damage.

Twenty years ago, a widespread line of thunderstorms rolled across large swaths of Iowa, leaving thousands of vehicles damaged or destroyed with baseball size hail. In 2010, a Mississippi auto auction got nailed with a massive hailstorm that forced the owners to hold a huge salvage sale.

Hail is a weather event that strikes fear into car dealer hearts. You can hide from the wind and run from the water, but hail leaves a mark — lots of them.

Hail damage can mean anything from a few paintless dent repairs to catastrophic losses leaving buildings destroyed and entire lots of inventory totaled. It accounts for $10 billion in losses annually and has driven up the cost of lot coverage premiums by 300-500 percent in the past two to three years.

For those dealers who face the threat of hail related events, Buckeye offers a very flexible hail insurance solution to ease your concerns. Buckeye’s solution removes the lengthy adjusting process, assures a timely payment within 7-10 business days, and gives the dealer control of the process.
