If you drive, car insurance is one of the most important types of insurances you can have.
Many people in the trades industry rely on their car to get to work, do their job and transport any equipment or tools. Should anything happen to your car, having insurance cover is the single most effective thing to getting back on the road and back to work.
However, not all car insurances come equal… and you should take caution before choosing your policy.
Know your circumstances and the specifics of when, how and why you use your car so you can tailor your policy to your specific situation.
Additionally, you want to read your policy carefully to avoid being under or over insured, and ensure that you are paying the correct amount for the right amount of cover for you and your car.
However, it is often difficult to know what you are reading as important details are often buried under confusing jargon. Check out our blog on Reading Your Policy for an idea on where to start… or better yet, have a talk to the team at Tradesure.
At Tradesure, we know you’ve got a lot on your plate which is why we are here to help with reviewing your policy, checking if your premium is competitive and going into bat for you when it comes time to make a claim.
You may be happy with your car insurance for the vehicle itself but as a tradie or someone that tows a trailer, you should look into the inclusions and exclusions.
If your car insurance is comprehensive, it may well cover your trailer too… but policies may have a limit on how much is covered and usually only cover your trailer when you are towing it.
Trailer Insurance will guarantee that your trailer and its contents are covered no matter where it is located. If you are a tradie who regularly unhooks your trailer at the worksite or home, it is imperative that you get covered!
For an insurance that is right for you, Tradesure is here to help. Let us look after your insurance and the complications that come with it whilst you look after your business.
