SWZ’s Service and Expertise are Superior when Compared to our Former Agency

We made the switch to SWZ Insurance 6 years ago. Prior to that we had been insured through Great West for almost 10 years, and we operate more than 200 power units, so it says a lot about Jon’s abilities that we made the decision to place our coverage with his firm. He showed us insurance options we never knew existed, and simultaneously helped us make some real world, practical changes in our safety and compliance program that allowed us to dramatically improve our scores. In short, found SWZ’s service and expertise superior when compared to our former agency.

Whenever We Encounter a Problem, Our First Call is Typically to Jon and His Team

We have had our insurance coverage placed through SWZ Insurance for almost two decades. During that time we have more than tripled the size of our fleet, while the trucking industry has undergone dramatic changes and many of our competitors have gone of out business. Jon understands the trucking industry, and has always stayed a step ahead by analyzing our financial picture and our unique risk exposure, and then crafting and placing us in a custom structured, large deductible liability plan that is tiered and which fits our needs perfectly. Consequently, this has allowed us to keep our insurance premium increases minimal as we have grown, and since it was crafted based on our unique history, our out of pocket deductible expense has been far offset by the premium savings. Whenever we encounter a problem, our first call is typically to Jon and his team, and they always work with us to handle the scenario. We wouldn’t even consider moving our insurance program to another agent or broker.

Switching to SWZ was one of the best decisions we made for our company

Ami called on our insurance for 3 years before I decided to give her a shot. Now I can’t believe I waited as long as I did since I know we spent valuable dollars which we won’t get back. I was skeptical when her team brought us the proposal which was saving us nearly $100,000 annually, but after listening to the presentation by SWZ, we knew we were dealing with a team of incredibly talented insurance professionals. Bottom line, switching to SWZ was one of the best decisions we have ever made for the future of our company.

SWZ saved us nearly 15% on our annual insurance cost

Our former agent had our insurance split between 4 to 5 different insurance companies. SWZ came in and combined all of our policies with one insurance company, provided us with important coverage which we were lacking, and saved us nearly 15% on our annual insurance costs. Now we don’t even take bids from other agencies.

We have never found any firm who can propose anything better

J.D. has handled our insurance program for nearly 20 years and that’s no small feat. We run over 100 tractors and we have never found any firm who can propose anything better or who we feel like can consistently bring the same level of knowledge to the table.

I made the switch to SWZ and have never looked back

“I am not one to switch brokers without careful consideration, and have only had 3 agencies handle my company’s insurance package in the past 20 years. After careful consideration I made the switch to Stratton, Wright & Ziemer and have never looked back. I cannot ever see making a change.”
