Finding high value van insurance for your company is crucial and it’s important to compare quotes from different insurance companies before jumping on a specific policy. The terminology involved in analyzing and acquiring this kind of insurance can be confusing – know what kind of coverage you need, and what kind you don’t. Every business owner needs to be aware of the two central compulsory insurance requirements for your employees and commercial vehicles. Employer’s liability would be the most important of the two, and is required if you have employees working for you, even if they are only working on a part-time basis, this is a must have. If an employee is injured during their work, this type of liability insurance will cover the costs of any compensation that might need to be paid out.
Van insurance is obviously a must have if there is any kind of van employed during the course of work, even if you or the company happens to own the vehicle. Be absolutely sure that the insurance certificate is capable of covering you for personal usage, as well as business use, so long as you’re using it for both. In most cases this means that you will need to extend your existing policy to Class 1 to use the van or vehicle for business purposes.
If other drivers require usage of the vehicle for business purposes, then it is necessary to get Class 2 coverage. If the vehicle will be used for commercial travelling purposes, such as finding new customers in different locations or delivering things, then you will need Class 3 coverage. Another good option to consider for van insurance is “goods in transit” coverage. This type of coverage will cover any loss, theft or damage that may occur during the delivery or transport of any goods.
