NEXT Insurance reviews

I am so excited
I am totally excited about my new insurance for my small business. I am happy that the price was in a range that I can afford, the terms were easy to understand and it was so simple to purchase my first policy. I look forward to doing business with you in the future.

Easiest insurance purchase – EVER!
I was looking around trying to compare insurance and I am so lucky I found NEXT. I was able to compare levels of coverage, and all the options, without pressure from a salesperson or time limits. I was able to check out prices and it was more coverage for less than the “traditional” company I looked at.
Michael W.
Happy small business owner!
I needed liability insurance for my new small business brick & mortar location. I got the run around from another company, but NEXT provided a competitive insurance quote in a timely manner. I now have the insurance that I need and it was stress-free!

Dedicated small business insurance

Why do cleaning professionals need business insurance?

Business insurance offers you protection from a wide range of accidents and business risks, from a customer slipping on a wet floor you just mopped to being accused of damaging property or theft.

Having the right types of insurance for your cleaning business means that you don’t have to pay entirely out of pocket after an accident or to defend your business.

Liability insurance for cleaning businesses

Cleaning liability insurance can help cover costs if a client accuses you of damaging an expensive carpet or not following safety instructions and causing an injury.

We combine two types of liability insurance in our business insurance packages:

General liability is the insurance coverage that most cleaning business owners buy first because it covers some of the most common accidents when you work with clients — property damage and injuries to non-employees.

You’ll have financial help if someone trips over your bucket and gets hurt or you accidentally shatter an expensive vase.

Errors and omissions insurance (also known as professional liability),provides financial protection if your client claims you didn’t do a good job or if you’re accused of making a mistake that causes someone to lose money. Accurate or not, you could have to pay to defend your business if they take legal action. Professional liability coverage will cover legal expenses or to amend the mistake.

Other important business insurance coverage for cleaners

Liability insurance is a must-have for covering your bases but you may want to add other types of business insurance to protect your cleaning equipment, your work vehicles and your employees.
We typically recommend:
Workers' Compensation Insurance
Workers’ Compensation for cleaners

If you have employees, workers’ compensation helps offset the costs of medical bills if they get hurt or sick on the job. Workers’ comp can also help to cover their lost wages while they recover from accidentally falling down the stairs while vacuuming.

This coverage is required for businesses with employees in every state except Texas.

Learn more about workers’ comp.
Commercial Auto Insurance
Commercial Auto insurance for cleaning businesses

Commercial auto insurance is legally required in most states if you own a car or truck that’s titled to your business. Even if you drive your own truck to job sites, it probably won’t be covered under your personal car insurance.

Tools & Equipment insurance for cleaners

Tools and equipment insurance can be added to your general liability insurance to help cover the cost of repairing or replacing your gear, whether it’s mops or extension poles.

Frequently asked questions about cleaning professionals’ insurance

Can I add an additional insured to my cleaners’ insurance?

Yes. We know this is a common need for cleaners to add an additional insured to their coverage, so we’ve given you the power to create certificates of insurance and add additional insureds for free.

If your client needs special language on the certificate or other forms (called endorsements), please send a sample certificate to support@nextinsurance.com and an agent will be happy to review those requirements with you.

Learn more about additional insureds.

What do I need to get an insurance quote online?

It takes about 10 minutes to get a business insurance quote online with NEXT. We’ll ask a few questions about your business — like what you do, your location, how many people you employ and the vehicles you use for work. You’ll choose your options and see prices. If you like what you see, you can buy online and get a certificate of insurance (proof of insurance) on the spot.

How can I get a certificate of insurance (COI)?

Once you have a NEXT policy, you’ll have 24/7 access to proof of your insurance (also called a certificate of insurance, or COI) via web or app. Log in to your account, download your COI instantly or deliver it via email or text at no additional cost. Get unlimited certificates and add an additional insured as you need them.
