Can I earn no claims bonus on my van insurance?

Yes, you will be able to earn no claims bonus on this insurance.

I only use my van for personal use, do I need to get cover for business use as well?

It is possible to have van insurance as a personal insurance, but you need to be mindful if you repeatedly use your van for activities that could be deemed commercial, e.g. multiple car boot sales.

Are there excesses on the policy?

Yes, there will be various excesses dependent on the cover you choose. There will be the option to increase and decrease some excesses. These options will be explained in advance of any purchase.

Can I change my vehicle and keep the same policy?

This depends on the vehicle you are changing to and the type of policy you are on. Most changes of a similar nature, such as replacing a van with another van, will be fine, but changing the type of vehicle, for instance from a van to an HGV, may not be possible.

How much does van insurance cost?

Due to varying factors, it is impossible to state how much van insurance costs in general. The major rating factors are age, type and value of vehicle, as well as who the drivers are, their claims history, and what it’s being used for.
