AA Van Insurance

AA Van Insurance from AA Insurance is a completely separate type of insurance policy from AA Car Insurance, which is typically for personal vehicles as opposed to those which are actually used as part of business.

Van insurance from AA is, thus, geared especially towards small business owners who may use their van in the course of their daily business activities, such as plumbers, or other tradesmen, or such as many other types of business use for deliveries, etc.

Many regular Motor Insurance policies will not cover vehicles which are primarily used as a part of business, and so policies such as AA Van Insurance are ideal for many small-business owners who use their vans as an integral part of their business operations.

AA Van Insurance makes excellent sense for any small business that relies on its van for its activities, and the comprehensive options and cover available with AA Van Insurance are probably adequate for most small-business owners, but for some business owners, and in certain situations, then AA Short-term Van Insurance is also useful.

A separate short-term van insurance policy from AA allows you to drive another vehicle without putting the no-claims bonus on your own main vehicle insurance at risk. There are a number of advantages to obtaining short-term van insurance, which include: temporary additional drivers; temporary additional vans; unaccompanied vehicle demonstrations; lending a van to a friend, colleague or relative; and immediate drive-away insurance if you've just bought a van.

The main conditions for obtaining short-term van insurance from AA are: any van you can drive with a standard UK driving licence; any person who has been resident in the UK for 12 months or more; drivers aged between 18 and 75; and fairly standard driving license conditions, which can be seen in full on the relevant AA Van Insurance page.

Even on its own AA Van Insurance provides a good amount of cover, and the cost is very competitive compared to similar insurance policies. However, with AA Van Insurance you also have the opportunity to add a number of other options to your van insurance too; for example:

AA Van Rescue: No other vehicle breakdown provider has as many dedicated patrols to assist its members, and with AA Van Rescue you can take advantage of: AA UK Roadside Service; AA UK Home Start; and AA Relay.

AA UK Roadside Service provides assistance if you break down more than a quarter mile from your home or office address, while AA UK Home Start provides breakdown assistance if you break down within quarter mile from your home or office address. AA Relay provides for transportation of your vehicle and driver, and up to seven passengers, to a UK mainland destination if speedy local repair is not possible.

If your business depends on your van, then it makes a lot of sense to get a good van insurance policy, and in terms of cost, coverage, and options available, they don't come much better than AA Van Insurance.
