<Van Insurance

  1. Start comparing quotes to secure a cost-effective fleet van insurance policy.

  2. Manage your entire fleet under one policy and one renewal date.

  3. Protect your vehicles with cover for breakdown, theft and more.

Fleet van insurance allows businesses to cover multiple vehicles under a single policy. It’s a straightforward way for LTD companies, sole traders, or any organisation running a small fleet to manage their vans without juggling separate van insurance policies.

Some of the main perks include:

  • A single, easy payment

  • One set of documents

  • One renewal date to remember

If you use two or more vehicles for work, you’ll typically need fleet van insurance. All vehicles must be owned by the same business. Most insurers set a minimum of two vehicles, though some may require more.

The cost depends on your business, how you use your vans, and who’s driving them. Some of the main things that can affect your premium include:

  • Number of vehicles:

    The size of your fleet.

  • Vehicle types:

    From small vans and pickups to HGVs and tippers - different vehicles carry different levels of risk.

  • How your vans are used:

    Carrying your own tools is lower risk, while courier or haulage work tends to be higher risk.

  • Who’s driving:

    Age, experience, and claims history all play a part. Some policies allow any qualified employee to drive, while others cover only named drivers.

  • Security:

    Secure parking, alarms, and immobilisers can help reduce costs.

The easiest way to see what it will cost is to compare quotes based on your business, fleet, and drivers.
