Multi Van Cover
It is in general true that paying for your multi van insurance upfront in one installment will reduce your costs. Conversely cash flow always plays a factor in small and large haulage businesses and this is understood by the panel of UK underwriters resulting in a flexible payment regime allowing you to pay monthly, quarterly or annually.
If your business has a number of vans, you are likely to have invested for months or years to expand your work fleet. Most businesses start with one vehicle, later as the business expands and other vehicles are added most likely under a separate policy taken out from the same underwriter. This is natural as you most likely have insured it at a different time from the renewal date of the first minivan. If this cycle continues you may have 2, 3 , 4 or more vans all with different policy renewal dates. Keeping up to date on the renewal dates and other aspects of the policies for the individual vehicles can be time consuming. To make things more manageable consider changing to a multi van fleet insurance policy. Paying your multi van insurance policy annually should work out cheaper than paying monthly and also reduce your admin costs.
Fleet van insurance options
Third Party
Like in the case with multi car insurance, there are different levels of cover that you can purchase. If you only need the bare minimum cover for a fleet of vans, you should purchase “third party” protection. This policy will cover you against claims by third parties only. Damages or losses to your vehicles or drivers are not provided for under this cover.
Third Party Fire and Theft
You can also go for “third party fire and theft” cover. Like the name suggests, the cover offers protection for losses that you may incur when your minivan is stolen or damaged in a fire. This is a mid-range cover and costs more than the “third party only” option.
Comprehensive
The most expensive multi van insurance that you may purchase is “fully comprehensive”. This cover offers protection for the liabilities mentioned above. Apart from this the cover allows you to claim for any injuries sustained or damages to your property. Normally this cover will come with a larger excess than both the “third party” and “third party fire and theft” packages. If you offer to increase the excess the insurer will normally agree to a lower premium.
