More and more mainstream motor insurance providers are entering the specialist van insurance sector and, as a result of the greater competition within the market, policies are offering more coverage options, while premiums are falling. When selecting van insurance, customers should first identify which sector their vehicle falls within. Most van insurance providers offer courier, small van and large van (such as a Transit) cover. Premiums are related to van size and use, so customers should ensure that they have the right coverage for their particular vehicle and its use. Because commercial vans are vital business tools, customers should seek out van insurance cover that provides quick and comprehensive vehicle repairs, while businesses should also ensure that all potential liabilities of their operation are covered. Some providers also offer commercially sensitive add-ons such as goods in transit insurance, tools cover and public and employer's liability insurance. Goods in transit insurance provides cover for the loss of merchandise, whether it be due to spoiling or theft, while it is contained in the insured van. This insurance is a valuable addition for any van operating company, but is of particular value to the self-employed or courier sectors which are likely to be carrying goods belonging to a third party. In a similar vein, a workman is only as good as his tools, so the theft of a workman's equipment is a serious business. Tool coverage protects the van user from the loss of their tools when taken from their locked vehicle. Liability insurance covers van owners against accidents and losses related to the use of the vehicle. This can include personal injury to an employee using the van to property damage involving the vehicle. Check out van insurance with additional cover. Furthermore, van insurance customers should also strongly consider policies that offer breakdown cover. As commercial vehicles clock up the miles rapidly, wear and tear and eventual breakdown is a real problem, so securing the right support to get your van back on the road quickly is a crucial requirement. Look for van insurance with breakdown cover. Finally, commercial van users should consider electronically limiting the top speed of their vehicles. All heavy goods vehicles are limited to 56mph and, from the start of 2008, all vans will be legally required to have the same limitations. It is expected that van insurers will respond to vehicle speed limitation measures with lower premiums, so installing speed limiters now could reap immediate benefit.
