The American Express rental truck insurance covers collision damage and theft, provided you pay for the entire rental with your Amex credit card and decline the rental agency's insurance offer. The amount you’re covered for varies depending on the credit card you have.
Keep in mind that box trucks, trucks that weigh 10,000+ lbs., or modified vehicles (except for handicapped accessibility) aren't covered.
To make an insurance claim, call (800) 338-1670 within 30 days of it happening, or as soon as reasonably possible. You can also file a claim online.
