Van Insurance Explained

Six things that affect your van insurance premium

These are the six most common reasons for a high van insurance premium:

Age and driving experience: younger people and people with less driving experience will often pay more.

Van make and model: more expensive or unusual vans will cost more to insure.

Home address: if you live in an area with statistically high insurance claim or general crime rates, your van insurance will cost more.

Mileage: insurers calculate that if you drive more, you’re more likely to be in an accident.

No Claims Discount [NCD]: a bigger no claims discount will usually get you a better price.

Van repair costs: if you drive an expensive van, your insurer will assume that repairs will also be expensive.

Choose the right level of cover



Third Party, Fire and Theft

The lowest level of van insurance available, this cover level protects your van from damage caused by fire, theft or attempted theft and covers claims from a third party if you’re involved in an incident.



Fully Comprehensive

Includes everything you’ll get with Third Party, Fire & Theft, and also covers you and your own van if you’re involved in an accident. It also covers your windsecreen and accidental damage that you cause to your own van.

Add the right extras



Breakdown cover

Roadside assistance, nationwide recovery, and cover at home to get you home or get you moving.

Cheaper Insurance Direct: How It Works

Your quote is free, with no obligation to buy: so if you don’t buy the policy we recommend for you, you pay nothing.

Our fee is approx. one-third of what we saved you. So, if we save you £150 against your renewal quote, our fee is £50 and you pocket the saving of £100. Everybody wins!

What if I don’t have a renewal quote?
If you are insuring for the first time and you don’t have a previous premium to save against, we will ask you to show us the best quote you have found for yourself: we will calculate your total savings based on that.

We always confirm the exact amount of our fee before you commit to buying your insurance: so there are never any nasty surprises nor hidden extras.

I’ve used Cheaper Insurance Direct for the car insurance on my current and all previous vehicles, and they’ve always got me a fantastic policy with everything I need and somehow still manage to save me money too. On top of that they save me so much time from having to do all the research myself and there so much more hidden value in that! Thanks for a great service that I can trust as well as being so quick and easy to use.

Excellent customer service. Second to none, and great at finding you a good deal. Highly recommended. *UPDATE* Once again I got an amazing deal from CID. This year they saved me nearly £200 on my insurance with my family car and my work van. Delighted with the excellent customer service, and over the moon with the savings. Thanks again!

Cheaper Insurance Direct are amazing. I recently started up my own business and have a lot to organise and sort through. Van insurance was just another headache. Then I reached out to CID and they took care of everything! They helped me to find the right cover, and got me an incredible deal.... saving me a good bit of money. CID have also sorted me out with great Public Liability Insurance for my business. They took the time to help me understand the policy too. Not only does this save me money, but it has saved me time too. Highly recommend Cheaper Insurance Direct for all your insurance needs. *UPDATE* Just saved nearly £100 on my van insurance from what I had been quoted for renewal. CID done it again! Absolutely delighted.
