Frequently Asked Questions

Is fleet breakdown cover different from personal breakdown cover?
Yes, fleet breakdown cover is designed for commercial vehicles and business use. It typically includes faster response times, commercial vehicle expertise, and covers the vehicle regardless of who's driving – not just named individuals.
Are HGVs and large vehicles covered?
Yes, we can arrange breakdown cover for vehicles of all sizes including HGVs, coaches, and specialist vehicles. These require specialist recovery equipment and expertise, which is included in commercial breakdown policies.
What's the typical response time?
Most providers aim to reach you within 60-90 minutes, though this can vary by location and time of day. Priority response options are available for time-critical operations.
Can I add or remove vehicles during the year?
Yes, fleet breakdown policies are flexible. You can add new vehicles as your fleet grows and remove vehicles when they're sold or taken off the road, with premiums adjusted accordingly.
Is breakdown cover included in my fleet insurance?
Sometimes, but not always. Many fleet motor policies offer breakdown as an optional extra. Standalone breakdown cover may offer more comprehensive benefits or better value for larger fleets.
