How Does It Work?

Insurance for recreational vehicles works in ways similar to homeowner’s insurance policies, providing you with important protection in the event of severe weather, theft, vandalism, or negligence. When you file a claim, your insurance company will ask for photographs, receipts, witnesses, and other documentation that can help settle your claim. An insurance adjuster might want to personally inspect your RV as part of the claim process.

In most cases, as in the case with homeowners insurance, you can choose the amounts and types of coverage that fit your situation, based on the value of the covered vehicle, its contents, and your budget. Insurance rates can also vary depending on where and how frequently you use your RV.

Types of Coverage

You can buy coverage for all types of recreational vehicles, not just motor homes. Boats, jet skis, travel trailers, motorcycles, ATVs are among the most popular insurable RVs. Each type of vehicle has special insurance needs, so you should talk with an insurance agent to make sure you have adequate coverage.

Lienholders often have their own requirements for insurance coverage that you must keep in place until you have obtained a clear title to your vehicle. If you financed the purchase of your RV through a bank or other lender, you should check with them, to make sure the RV insurance you buy meets your contractual obligations.

Accidents, injuries, and thefts can occur at any moment. Recreational Vehicles Insurance gives you the peace of mind you need to enjoy your RV. After all, it’s no fun if you worry about it.
