Recently we reported on an increase in caravan theft, and in the light of this choosing to insure your caravan is one of the easiest decisions to make. Yet selecting a provider which meets your needs can be trickier with the array of offers in the market.
However being a mamber of a major touring club can come with additional benefits. One of the many services provided by the Caravan Club is their touring caravan insurance scheme. A specialised product designed only for caravanners it provides the cover needed in touring situations.
The latest offers include an increase in the ‘no claims’ discount to a maximum of 35% after 4 years free of claims. This means policy holders now qualify for 20% for 1 year of no claims, 25% for 2 years’ of no claims. and 30% for 3 years’ of no claims.
In addition it has been proven that wheel locks reduce the risk of theft, and the Caravan Club offers a 10% discount for caravans fitted with a qualifying device. Examples include the BPW Diamond wheel lock as well as the previously recognised AL-KO Secure. A 5% discount is offered for those storing caravans at a CaSSOA Gold site or in Caravan Club secure storage.
Towing safety devices are also recognised in the comprehensive scheme, and an additional 10% discount is offered to policy holders for fitting an AL-KO ATC or BPW iDC trailer control system to their caravans.
Lesley Coell is the Head of Insurance and Financial Services for The Caravan Club. She noted that “the newly implemented discounts could result in those qualifying for all the caravan insurance discounts being able to reduce their base premium significantly, enjoying a huge saving on what is already an exceptionally competitively priced and comprehensive product.”
