Who needs two day van insurance?

Short term van insurance comes in handy in several ways and is useful for some tradespeople, smaller businesses, and domestic and social situations. No matter your circumstances, two day van insurance can be just what you need!

Moving large items: You may also want to hire a van when transporting oversized items that wouldn’t fit in a car.

Younger drivers: It is also an excellent cover for younger drivers who can’t afford the higher premiums that come with an annual cover and if they only need to drive the van from time to time.

Buying or selling: Short term insurance can come in handy when you want to buy or sell a van. You can cover yourself when you start to test drive the van before buying it or get a drive-away cover once you have purchased it.

Lending or borrowing a van: In some cases, you may need to borrow a van or lend your van out to someone for a little bit. Temporary van insurance can be great in this instance, both for commercial and personal use.

Sharing driving: Two day van insurance is also great when you want to share the driving between two people during long trips.

Moving house: You could opt to borrow a van and get insured to drive it for two days or however long is needed. Doing this saves money and ensures you have the temporary insurance cover you need.

How two day van insurance works

Temporary two day van insurance is simple, quick, and convenient. This policy allows you or someone else to get temporary van insurance coverage in a matter of minutes. You can get cover for one or two days or up to 28 days, depending on what you need.

Temporary van insurance is ideal if you are lending or borrowing a van from a friend or family member. It is ineffective if you are hiring a van; in that case, you will need to get van hire cover.

Short term van insurance makes driving someone else’s van more convenient than ever. It’s easy for all parties involved. It also allows you to temporarily lend your van to another person who isn’t a named driver on your existing van insurance policy. Two day van insurance is a win-win!

A temporary insurance cover also won’t impact your no claims discount in any way. A two day van insurance policy will not affect any of your other policies that are currently in place. However, it can impact future van and car insurance premiums should you have an accident.
