The correct answer is C. Warehouseman’s legal liability policy . A warehouseman’s legal liability policy covers the insured’s legal liability for loss or damage to property of others while that property is in the insured’s care, custody, or control as a warehouseman or storage operator, subject to the wording and legal responsibility. In this scenario, the self-storage facility’s employee negligently causes a fire that damages renters’ contents in storage units. The renters own the damaged property, but they may seek reimbursement from the storage facility if the facility is legally responsible for the loss. Because the damage arises from the storage operation and negligence of the facility’s employee, warehouseman’s legal liability is the most appropriate coverage among the options. A rental insurance policy would normally be purchased by the renter to cover their own property, not the storage operator’s liability. A commercial property floater covers property of the insured, not necessarily liability for customers’ stored goods. Contingent business interruption applies to income loss caused by damage to another party’s property that affects the insured’s operations; it does not fit this claim.
