Couriers have a lot of responsibilities, and with these responsibilities comes many risks to their business.

For instance, a collision on the road could not only cause a courier's van to be off the road for a significant amount of time, but it could also cause damage to the valuable goods they are transporting for their customers.

While you can't always prevent accidents from happening – even the safest drivers will occasionally suffer mishaps – you can ensure that you're properly protected by choosing the best van insurance for couriers.

What cover do couriers need?

All couriers have different insurance needs. There are some types of policies that all couriers will likely always need since they are driving a van full of expensive goods. These are Hire and Reward insurance (insuring you to carry other people's goods in return for payment) and haulage or goods in transit insurance (covering the goods in case they are damaged or stolen). But there are also other areas where couriers' requirements may differ.

For example, it may be that your circumstances mean you need to give several drivers access to the same van. In this case, an any driver van insurance policy is a wise choice, which allows any of your employees to hop in the van and make deliveries should another driver be unavailable. If you have a smaller workforce of only three or four drivers, then named driver insurance could be a more cost-effective option than any driver insurance and still give you the same flexibility. If you own a small fleet of several vans, then it may City Insurance Group to look into obtaining small fleet van insurance rather than insuring each van separately. Being smart when taking out insurance is the key to saving you plenty of time and money down the line.

Our insurance deals offer flexibility so that you can name your drivers, your driving patterns and the add-ons, such as like-for-like replacement vehicle cover, that you wish.  We understand that despite these differing needs, all courier van insurance customers are entitled to the same basic standards.
