Questions We Get Asked
Frequently Asked Questions
What Types of Cover Are Available for Vans?

Depending on your needs, additional cover options for tools, signage, and equipment may be available. It’s important to select the level of cover that suits your business, ensuring your vans and assets are adequately protected for your operations.
Can I Insure Multiple Vans Under One Policy?
Yes, you can insure multiple vans under one policy with a fleet insurance plan.

Insuregroup can help you identify the most suitable fleet insurance options and ensure your policy is structured correctly for your van fleet.
Does Van Insurance Cover the Tools and Equipment Inside the Vehicle?
Some van insurance policies offer optional cover for tools and equipment stored inside the vehicle. It’s crucial to confirm this coverage with your insurer, especially if you transport valuable tools or business equipment. Ensuring the correct coverage can help safeguard your business’s assets in case of theft or damage.
Are Modifications to My Van Covered?
Modifications to your van, such as custom fittings or equipment, may be covered depending on your insurance policy. However, it’s essential to declare all modifications to your insurer when arranging or renewing your insurance. Failing to do so can impact your coverage or claims in the event of an incident.
