Van insurance costs are a major drain on resources for the small contractor or shop owner in the UK. We have, however, teemed up with a major broker to provide you with cheap quotes from a range of companies. Cover is available for comprehensive or third party, fire and theft.
Our van insurance quotations are available for a wide range of occupations and we can provide cheap quotes even if you have made claims on a policy or have been unlucky enough to pick up a conviction. If you would like to discuss the merits of our various policies please call us on 0870 7456247.
If you contact us we can also look at the less common risk - special types of vehicles such as ice cream vans, rollers, plant and agricultural vehicles such as tractors. We suggest that you ring 0870 7456247 when further details can be taken.
| Van insurance quotes used for your own business (own goods) can be quoted for by using the link below. Larger vehicles such as lorries, trucks can only be quoted for if you contact us. (If you do want a fleet quotation we will require confirmed claims experience over the last 3 years and a schedule of the vehicles to be covered - probably best to fax them on 01388 660329).
