You have to admit it’s a catchy name, here’s the word;
Direct Commercial Limited (DCL) has launched a new product, Haul In One Truck IHP, on the Acturis platform as of 7 May 2025, extending the availability of its Haul In One proposition to include larger commercial vehicles.
This development marks a significant expansion of DCL’s e-trade offering and makes DCL the sole insurer supporting e-trade on the platform for larger commercial vehicles.
Already available via Acturis for lighter vehicles under 12 tonnes, Haul In One Truck IHP will now enable brokers to also quote and bind for heavy vehicles directly within the Acturis platform, giving insurance brokers even easier access to cover for larger vehicles via their everyday e-trade systems.
Michael Dickinson, Head of Schemes at Direct Commercial, said:
“We’re proud to be the only insurer supporting e-trade for heavy vehicles on Acturis. Brokers want fast, simple access to reliable cover – particularly in the heavy commercial vehicle space. By extending Haul In One on Acturis to include truck risks, we’re giving brokers exactly that: a straightforward way to quote and bind through a familiar system, backed by the same service and expertise we’ve always delivered.”
The launch directly responds to broker demand. DCL’s most recent Broker Barometer revealed that 78% of brokers consider e-trade access via platforms like Acturis a major advantage when placing business but only 22% of commercial motor brokers feel insurers are adequately making products available on key software platforms. This exclusive launch helps meet that demand, improving both accessibility and speed to quote.
This exclusive position underscores DCL’s continued investment in broker-focused digital access. Haul In One, already a trusted product on the Acturis Commercial Vehicle (CV) platform for lighter vehicles, will now be available for trucks over 12 tonnes – with the same A-rated capacity and broker support DCL is known for.
With this development, Direct Commercial reinforces its position as a market leader in broker-first digital trading for commercial motor.
