What level of cover do I need?

Like a car insurance policy a HGV insurance policy will provide a choice of either fully comprehensive, third party fire and theft, and third party insurance cover. Most policies will cover for use and driving in Ireland, UK and even Continental Europe if required.

The main factors affecting your policy include the type of goods you carry, the type and size of your heavy goods vehicle, nature of goods you carry, if you employ other drivers and your level of no claims bonus. Annual mileage and the nature and destinations of your journeys will also have an impact on cost.
