      What is temporary van insurance for?

      If you’re not a named driver on an insurance policy you can now drive that van instantly, with a short term van insurance policy and the owner’s permission. A temporary policy gives you your own insurance policy to drive that van for a time period from 1 to 28 days.

      How Does Temporary Van Insurance Cover work?

      1 to 28 day van insurance works by giving you, the driver, your very own van insurance policy (short term) on the named van with the owner’s permission. As you’re not a named as a driver on the existing insurance policy, in the unfortunate situation that you need to make a claim, the claim will be on your short term policy not the existing van owner’s policy, keeping the van owner’s no claims incident free.
