Frequently asked questions
What is fleet insurance and how does it differ from standard vehicle insurance?
Acorn Fleet Insurance offers a streamlined way to cover your entire business vehicle fleet under one policy. This differs from standard vehicle insurance and can provide the following benefits:
- Cost-effective: Fleet insurance can be significantly more cost-effective than insuring each vehicle individually, especially for businesses with a good driving record.
- Convenience: Manage your entire fleet’s coverage with a single policy, saving you time and hassle, especially when it comes to renewing your fleet policy.
- Flexibility: Acorn fleet insurance can be more suited to the specific needs of your business, covering a variety of vehicles with policies for different business areas.
Do I need fleet insurance?
Fleet Insurance can be ideal for businesses that own and operate three or more vehicles. You could consider a single fleet policy if:
- You have a fleet of cars, taxis, vans (maximum GVW 7.5 tonnes), or a mix of vehicles.
- Your vehicles are essential to your day-to-day operations.
- You require a more cost-effective and convenient way to manage your fleet business.
What is meant by ‘own goods’ insurance for a fleet of vehicles?
Own goods insurance, in relation to a fleet policy, covers the tools, equipment, and materials your employees transport while using your fleet vehicles. Examples of businesses that would use own goods insurance include caterers, electricians, plumbers, and other tradespeople. Some standard fleet insurance policies may only cover damage to the vehicles themselves.
What is covered under an Acorn Insurance fleet policy?
There are three levels of cover available, as detailed in the FAQ below. There are specialist fleet policies available for different types of fleets, including cover for taxi fleets and commercial fleets, as well as fleets using telematics technology to manage and monitor driving standards and usage (also known as connected fleet insurance).
Please get in touch with one of our fleet team today to find out which type of fleet insurance policy may work for you and your business.
What are the cover levels available for Acorn's fleet insurance?
- Comprehensive: Provides coverage for all the above, plus damage to your own vehicles from events like collisions and vandalism. Our comprehensive fleet cover also includes glass windscreen cover.
- Third-party, fire, and theft: Covers damage to other vehicles and property, as well as fire damage and theft of your fleet vehicles.
- Third party only: The minimum cover required to legally have your fleet of vehicles on the road. A third party only policy will cover you for claims against you by third parties if you are at fault for an incident.
