Van Hire Insurance

Hello

I need to hire a van this weekend, can anyone advise what level of cover I need.

I am hiring it to move furniture and valuables from a house clearance. The driver to be insured has been driving for 10 years with a clean licence.

Thanks in advance for your help

    The van hire place will sort out the insurance.

    They will try to add damage waivers, excess waivers etc as upselling but the hire of the van will include the minimum fully comp cover with a large excess.

    You just need to decide how likely it is you will crash or the van to be damaged and the cost associated.
