REPORT THE INCIDENT IMMEDIATELY
Call us as soon as your ATV or UTV is damaged or stolen—the faster you report, the faster we can help. If your machine was stolen, file a police report right away, especially if it disappeared from a trailhead parking area or remote location. Take photos of any damage from every angle before moving the vehicle if possible, showing the overall scene and close-ups of specific damage. Write down what happened while it's fresh—where you were riding, what trail or area, weather conditions, and exactly how the damage occurred. For theft, note the last location, time you last saw it, and any suspicious activity you noticed. We'll guide you through exactly what documentation your specific policy requires, but getting these basics covered immediately protects your claim.
WE ASSESS AND ARRANGE REPAIRS
Once you've reported the claim, we work with you and the insurance company to assess the damage. For physical damage, an adjuster will inspect your ATV/UTV—either at your location, a repair shop, or through detailed photos you provide. We help coordinate this inspection to make it as convenient as possible. The adjuster determines repair costs based on the damage and your policy's coverage terms. If your machine is repairable, we'll discuss approved repair shops (you often have choice in where repairs happen) and help arrange the work. For total losses where repair costs exceed the machine's value, we'll explain your settlement options. Remember that collision coverage pays for rollover or crash damage, while comprehensive coverage handles theft, vandalism, hail damage, or hitting an animal on the trail. Your deductible (your part of the cost) applies before insurance pays the rest.
WE GET YOU BACK RIDING
Our goal is getting you back on the trails as quickly as possible. We stay in contact throughout the repair process, following up with repair shops and adjusters to prevent delays. For stolen machines, we work with the insurance company on the waiting period (typically 30 days) to see if law enforcement recovers your ATV/UTV before settlement. If it's not recovered, we help you through the settlement process and discuss replacement options. We explain your payout—whether it's actual cash value (current market value minus depreciation) or agreed value (amount you insured it for)—so there are no surprises. Many Casper riders don't realize their coverage options until claim time, which is too late. We review your current policy to make sure you understand what you actually have, and we're here to answer questions even after your claim closes.

While both ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicles) and UTVs (Utility Terrain Vehicles) are off-road vehicles, policies can have subtle differences based on their design and typical usage. Off-road coverage broadly covers recreational use. If you plan to make your ATV/UTV street legal or often cross public roads in Wyoming or Colorado, you may need additional endorsements or a separate policy to ensure you have coverage for on-road incidents, which typically falls under different regulations.
Most ATV/UTV insurance policies do not cover damages resulting from intentional acts, racing or competitive events, or unapproved modifications that significantly alter the vehicle's performance. Additionally, using your vehicle outside of its normal recreational purpose, such as for commercial hauling in the oil fields without specific endorsements, could lead to denied claims. Always check your policy specifics!
While not always legally mandated for off-road use on private land, ATV/UTV insurance is often required when operating on public lands, trails, or state parks in Wyoming and Colorado. If you finance your vehicle, your lender will also likely require it. Even if not required, it's highly recommended to protect your finances from potential accident-related costs.

ATV/UTV insurance usually provides liability coverage for bodily injury and property damage you might cause to others. It can also include comprehensive coverage, protecting your vehicle from non-collision incidents like theft, fire, or weather damage (common in Wyoming!), and collision coverage, which helps with repair or replacement costs if your ATV or UTV hits another object or vehicle.
