What does trailer insurance cover?

Trailer hire in the event of a claim

Should your trailer be out of use due to a claim, our policy will cover you to hire a replacement trailer. Please note that you must first submit your claim and have it accepted. Once your claim has been accepted and processed by the insurer, you can hire a temporary trailer, costing up to 10% of your trailer (sum insured).

New for old trailer cover

‘New for old’ cover affords you compensation to replace your trailer with the same version or equivalent new version of your trailer, should it need to be replaced. Please note that if your trailer is under two years old, the policy will pay out the price 'as new' if it is written off. If it is older than two years, your payout will be calculated on a 'market value' basis. This means that it will be based on the value of your trailer at the time of your claim.

Theft and attempted theft

Theft cover is included as long as your trailer is fitted with a wheel clamp when it's not in use. Failure to do this could result in a theft claim not being paid. We also like to encourage safe storage - particularly if your trailer is worth more than £10,000. We can provide discounts on your horse trailer insurance if you store it on your driveway or in a garage. Other savings are available for different storage arrangements. Please note that theft cover does not include the contents of the trailer.

Optional trailer recovery options

Our aim is to get your repaired trailer safely back on the road - but first, we have to get it to a location where it can be repaired. With our policy, you may be able to claim back the cost of pick up or recovery (subject to the insurer's terms and conditions). We'll also let you choose your repairer - so if you’ve got someone in mind, just let us know.
