Van Insurance FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions - Van Insurance
Why do I need Van Insurance?
It's a legal requirement to have van insurance. What's more, your van is likely to be key to your business and livelihood - the right policy can offer support and peace of mind.
What type of cover do I need?
Choose between a private or commercial policy, then pick the level of cover you require - the three main types are comprehensive, third party only or third party, fire and theft, although telematics policies are starting to make strides in the market.
What's the difference between private and commercial van use?
Private van insurance allows you to use your vehicle solely for social reasons, for example seeing friends. Commercial van insurance, also known as business van insurance, permits the driver to carry out a trade or profession using the vehicle, such as making deliveries or transporting tools and equipment.
If you commute to even one place of work in a van, you'll need commercial insurance.
What factors will determine the price of my policy?
There are many factors which contribute towards your policy price, including vehicle value, van performance, vehicle speed and security systems. As with a car policy, you can opt to be liable for a voluntary excess on top of any compulsory excess which could potentially lower your premium.
Can I apply my no claims bonus (NCB) to a second van?
No, the no claims bonus applies to a single van; it can be transferred to an alternative van but it can’t be applied to an additional van or another vehicle.
A number of insurers will give discounts or allow you to mirror your NCB on a second van, but you need to check with individual insurers to find out if they offer such incentives.
Do modifications to my van affect my insurance?
Let your insurer know about any modifications on your vehicle. It may affect your premium, but failure to disclose such information is likely to invalidate your policy.
