Business vehicles insurance

 

What is business vehicles insurance?

Business vehicles insurance is specially designed for business cars, vans, taxis and trucks.

There are normally four types of cover:

Third party only

Third party, fire
and theft

Comprehensive

Protection for cars which are off the road (SORN)

If your business has more than one vehicle, fleet insurance may be an option to cover all of them on the same policy rather than separate insurance for individual vehicles.

Motor trade insurance may be more appropriate if your business is a garage or sells or services vehicles – your broker will be able to help you decide which cover is best for you.

Who may benefit from it?

Any business which uses company vehicles may need business vehicle insurance.  So, if you or your employees use a company car or van, for example, to visit clients or to transport goods, then you should speak to your broker to find an insurance policy which gives you the right level of protection.

When would it help?

Depending on the cover selected, business vehicle insurance may include cover for:

  • road traffic incidents where your driver is at fault e.g. for damage to another vehicle
  • damage caused by another driver who can’t be traced or is uninsured
  • accidental damage
  • theft or attempted theft of the vehicle and/or its contents
  • accidental misfuelling

Our range of products are only available through insurance brokers. 

What else might you want insurance for?

Buildings & contents
There are many scenarios that can lead to buildings and contents belonging to a business getting damaged, lost or stolen. Insurance can help get things back to normal by paying for replacements and repair works.
Liability
As well as having the building and contents insured, you might want public liability insurance. This insurance can provide protection against personal injury or property damage claims from members of the public. There are other types of liability cover a business might also require, including employer’s liability, professional indemnity, and directors and officers insurance. Your insurance broker will be able to help you to establish which covers are best for your business.

Business interruption
Sometimes the unexpected happens and it can have a major impact on businesses. Whilst buildings and contents insurance normally takes care of physical damage and losses, business interruption insurance helps with financial losses, such as wage payments and missed income, when the business isn’t able to operate as normal after physical damage or loss.

Frequently asked questions

Many private car insurers include commuting use as standard because so many people use their personal car in this way. However there is no one answer, especially if you use the car to drive to multiple locations or visit clients, or to transport goods. You should speak to your broker or insurance company to make sure you have a policy that protects you.
