Reduce van insurance premiums with van livery

The common perception that van livery is too expensive is false, says QuoteAVan.co.uk, as it could pay for itself in insurance savings.

The thinking behind this is that a branded van is less appealing to thieves, easier to identify in case of an accident and thus more likely to be driven with care. Insurance premiums could therefore be reduced if owners add sign writing to the sides of their vehicles that clearly identifies the business or highlights the fact that they are members of approved trade organisations.

Another way to reduce insurance costs is to add a "How Well Do I Drive?" badge at the rear of the van. This gives disgruntled motorists the opportunity to register any complaint with an independent monitor that will investigate instances of alleged dangerous or reckless driving on their behalf.

Other good news for van drivers is that those with driving convictions can now find more competitive van insurance rates. With the number of speed cameras increasing across the nation’s roads, those who drive for business purposes are becoming ever more likely to have points on their license. Insurance companies are now looking at the number of miles driven by an individual per year and factoring this in when calculating a premium for drivers with penalty points.

The real key for cheaper van insurance, however, is to contact a specialist insurer who will treat every enquiry on a personal basis and consider every proposal on its own merits. This is an ideal solution for customers who want to include non-standard risks or don’t need everything that may be contained in an off-the-shelf policy.

Spencer Street, General Manager of QuoteAVan.co.uk, commented: “Specialist insurers should recognise that van owners and drivers have specific needs and their services should meet these needs accordingly."
