Transtar

Who we are

Since our formation as Diversified Insurance Brokers, Inc. in 1963, we have focused on creating innovative solutions for our clients through various alternative risk transfer methods.

We created some of the first Liability and Workers’ Compensation Self-Insurance programs in the 1960’s. We knew early on that the cost of claims is by far the largest item in our client’s insurance expenses.

As such, we focused on claims handling and creating insurance programs where the interest of insurer and insured are aligned.

In 2001 when we changed our name to Transtar Insurance Brokers, Inc.

We focused entirely on the transportation industry – specifically for-hire motor carriers. We are now on our 2nd & 3rd Generation of family ownership and continue to attract the industry’s best talent to help our clients meet their own goals rather than off the shelf products.

Transtar currently has over 50 employees, all dedicated to transportation insurance and risk management.

Whether your business has 20 trucks or 20,000, we have the ability to bring you solutions that will ultimately reduce your total cost of risk.

> We embrace technology as a tool to increase productivity and deliver a better product to our clients.

> We understand your business and the insurance marketplace that serves it and we are always looking for and creating new and creative concepts to lower your cost of risk.

> We are actively involved in state and national trucking associations and keep up to date on current issues

> We do not fall into the trap of leaving something with an insurance company for a long period of time because it is easier, we always push them to keep performing for our clients.
