Courier insurance provided for all drivers
If you’re in the courier business, you know the risks. You put in a lot of hours on the road – more than most people – and you need to make sure you’re protected from any potential risks. The common business model of self-employed contracting places a variety of risks and liabilities with the owner-driver, which is why you need to consider courier business insurance.
Whether that’s courier van insurance, transit cover, employer’s liability insurance or other policies around legal liability, a comprehensive courier insurance policy is essential.

What are the risks of a courier business?
As a courier van or parcel delivery driver, it’s important to have the highest level of comprehensive insurance to protect you from potential risks. Common risks that couriers encounter include:
Theft or Damage of Goods
Unfortunately, courier vans are commonly targeted for theft. Goods may also be damaged in the delivery process. Couriers insurance ensures you’re covered, and also protects the third party who is receiving the goods.
Public liability insurance covers a package or your vehicle being stolen, in addition to an employee accidentally damaging goods.
Damage to Vehicle
The fact you’re on the road pretty much constantly means you need to protect your vehicle from potential damage.
Cover yourself in the event of any accidental damage to your vehicle. Commercial vehicle insurance also covers theft. If you need to repair or replace your vehicle, this is the insurance you’ll wish you had.
Commercial vehicle insurance can also cover the costs of a hire car, so you won’t be without a vehicle for long.
Public Liability
Public liability insurance is an integral policy for courier vehicles. If anybody is injured or has their property damaged in relation to your courier business, you’re protected.
Personal Accident and Sickness
If you become sick and injured, you may not be able to continue driving. Personal accident or sickness insurance protects you from any loss of income while you’re recovering.
