Refrigerated Van Insurance

Refrigerated Van Insurance — Cover for Temperature-Controlled Vehicles

Refrigerated van insurance is a specialist commercial motor policy for businesses that transport frozen and fresh products in temperature-controlled vehicles. Standard van insurance does not cover the specialist refrigeration equipment or the unique risks of transporting perishable goods. You need a policy that protects your vehicle, your refrigeration unit, your stock, and your liability to the public.

At Vehicle Cover, we offer competitively priced refrigerated van insurance with fire cover and fixtures and fittings included as standard. Our policies cover the vehicle and all permanently installed refrigeration equipment. Optional extensions include breakdown and recovery, legal expenses, business interruption, loss of stock, frozen food cover, employer's liability up to £10 million, and public liability up to £5 million.

We insure refrigerated vans for restaurants, butchers, fishmongers, greengrocers, food and catering companies, pharmaceutical businesses, and florists. Whether you run a single van or a fleet, Vehicle Cover will find the right cover.
