What Last-mile delivery insurance Requirements Apply in Indiana?
Indiana Code chapter 8-2.1-19.3 applies after June 30, 2024, to a delivery network company that uses a digital network to connect customers with drivers for delivery of goods. During the delivery-available period, primary liability is at least $50,000 per person, $100,000 per incident, and $50,000 property damage. During the delivery-service period it is at least $1 million per incident. The passenger-network chapter is a different rule: its property-damage floor rose from $25,000 to $50,000 after June 30, 2024, and its on-ride limit is $1 million, but that chapter is limited to transporting passengers.
What Is Last-Mile Delivery Insurance?
Last-mile delivery insurance is not one standard policy: vehicle liability, vehicle damage and cargo protection can be separate. If your staff deliver orders in company, rented or personal vehicles, check each vehicle, cargo and worker-injury exposure in the quote. Read the national Last-mile delivery guide.

What to Watch for With Last-Mile Delivery in Indiana
Goods Delivery Has Its Own Chapter
Chapter 8-2.1-19.3 is the delivery-network insurance rule, and it applies after June 30, 2024. A food or parcel driver who is only 'available' is in the $50,000/$100,000/$50,000 period. The $1 million limit starts in the delivery-service period, not merely because a passenger-network quote uses $1 million on a ride. 3
Passenger Property Damage Rose in 2024
For a transportation network company, chapter 8-2.1-19.1 sets property damage at $25,000 per incident before July 1, 2024, and $50,000 per incident after June 30, 2024, while logged on and not on a prearranged ride. A renewal that still shows $25,000 property damage is using the expired passenger figure. 1
Do Not Mix the Passenger Chapter into a Goods Route
The definitions treat a prearranged ride as transportation of a rider, and they put delivery of goods in the delivery-network chapter. Buying the passenger on-ride $1 million limit does not answer the delivery-available property-damage figure, which is $50,000 rather than the older $25,000 passenger amount. 2,3
Which Last-Mile Delivery Providers Have Indiana License Records?
No provider in our research documents both a state license record and this coverage line. This does not establish that providers are unlicensed. Check the regulator’s license lookup and confirm availability with a provider when requesting a quote.

Questions to Ask Before You Buy Last-Mile Delivery in Indiana
- Is this fleet in the delivery-available period or the delivery-service period under chapter 8-2.1-19.3?
- Does the delivery-available quote include $50,000 property damage, not the pre-July 2024 passenger figure of $25,000?
- If some vehicles still carry passengers, are those units on chapter 8-2.1-19.1 instead of the delivery chapter?
