Under the Commercial Building and Personal Property Form, where is the personal property of others covered?

• A. Anywhere in the insured's care
• B. Only at the insured's premises
• C. Only in transit
• D. Only at the building site

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that personal property of others is protected whenever it’s in the insured’s care, custody, or control. This form covers items belonging to clients or customers not just on the insured’s own property, but anywhere the insured is responsible for them—at a job site, at the insured’s premises, or while the property is being moved. So the broad coverage is “anywhere in the insured’s care.” The other options are too narrow because they limit coverage to a single location or situation (premises only, transit only, or building site only), whereas this form protects property wherever the insured has possession.
