Say I wanted to start a business showing tourists from afar around San Francisco, Silicon Valley, Wine country etc – would I need to be licensed in some way?

No. You need a business license and any other appropriate license for your equipment or operations. For example, if you’re going to have a bus, you have to have the appropriate endorsement on your driver’s license for public transportation. In Washington state, we call it a “chauffeur’s” license.
(USA) Insurance while renting a moving truck – do any independent companies sell it?

Question: (USA) Insurance while renting a moving truck – do any independent companies sell it?
We’re moving, and renting a moving truck. We definitely need the CDW (collision damage waiver) “insurance” coverage, but the vendor’s charge is excessive. Are there any independent companies that will sell short-term collision/damage/loss insurance, so I don’t have to buy it from the vendor?
I’ve been buying low-cost CDW for car rentals this way, but the company I use doesn’t cover truck rentals and I can’t find another company that will do it.
Our liability insurance for our car will provide coverage, but not for any damage that happens to the truck we will be driving.

Not that I’m aware of. You must buy the insurance from the rental company; ordinary auto insurance does not extend to rented trucks. Nor does the insurance coverage provided by credit cards.
One very important thing to keep in mind: The insurance from the rental place does NOT cover the top of the truck. Ever! If you go under a low bridge or other overhang and strike it with the top of the truck you will be personally responsible for all damages. No insurance company covers the top of the truck’s body.

Question: how do you start your own independent insurance agency?
I’ve been a licensed insurance agent for 10 years. Recently we opened a travel agency and work from home. We would like to open a store front and thought it would be a great idea to have an insurance agency and a travel agency operate from the same office. We don’t know how to start the insurance agency.

Answer by Faye H
You’re a licensed agent for 10 years and you don’t know what you need to do to start an agency? That’s a bit scary. Make sure you keep your Errors and Omissions policy up to date if you ever actually start trying to sell insurance.
