Overview
The Difference is Service®

At Great West Casualty Company, when we say The Difference is Service®, it is very important for us to deliver quality service. This reflects reliability and consistency. We do this daily through every employee and agency partner.

As one of America's largest insurers of trucking companies, seeing things from our customers’ perspective has contributed to the cooperative relationships we have developed throughout the decades. In 1956, Great West Casualty Company was formed. From that moment on, a partnership with trucking professionals and a tradition of service was firmly established into our company culture.

Great West has established a reputation of unparalleled products and services through its innovative underwriting, claims, loss prevention, and subrogation departments. The growth of Great West over the years has come from knowing, understanding, and serving the needs of the trucking industry, to meeting and exceeding our customers’ needs.

Great West has been assigned an A.M. Best's Rating of A+ (Superior) and currently maintains an AA (Very Strong) rating with Standard & Poor's Rating Service. Great West has also received an Aa2 (Excellent) rating from Moody's Investors Service.

With our parent company (Old Republic International Corp.), financial strength, and stability, we have the means to protect what is most important to truckers... their future.

Services
In addition to providing the protection trucking professionals need, we are dedicated to providing valued services such as:

Great West has knowledgeable physical damage and cargo professionals who can handle claims quickly to help get customers back on the road.

Our seasoned liability and legal professionals are experienced in handling complex claim cases. Customers have access to our claims services 24 hours a day, every day of the year with experienced staff responding to their needs.

•Subrogation: Our subrogation staff can seek recovery of benefits paid under our customer’s policy when another party is legally liable for their damages. The ability to seek reimbursement for deductibles and losses paid is a valuable service of Great West.
