Cheaper Caravan Insurance

There are a number of ways you can reduce the cost of your caravan insurance. We have put together a few hints and tips to help you save money on your caravan insurance premiums

Dont over insure - think about the cover you need for your caravan

Have a think about the cover you actaully need for your caravan. If, for example you do not take your caravan abroad then don't choose a policy which includes it. If your caravan is brand new or only a couple of years old you might want to choose a policy which offers new for old.

Remember: unless you fall into the new for old category you will only get market value of your caravan back if you claim and if you overegg the value of your caravan you will be wasting your money.

Caravan Security

Most caravan insurance policies will have minimum security requirements. Always make sure that you take note and comply with these. If your caravan is stolen and they can prove you did not have the required security the chanses are they will not pay your claim. Could be a very expensive mistake.
