INSURANCE FOR HIRE FLEETS & RENTAL STATIC CARAVANS

Why Hire Fleet & Rental Static Caravan Insurance Matters

Hire fleet statics and park-owned units are a key income stream for many holiday parks. Storm damage, guest accidents, fire, escape of water or malicious damage can remove a number of units from your letting stock at once – and take rental income with them. Specialist hire fleet insurance can cover the physical caravans, their contents, your loss of rent and liability to guests, helping your park recover quickly when the unexpected happens.

  • Escape of water from showers, toilets or frozen pipes during winter closures.
  • Theft of TVs, appliances and park-owned contents from hire fleet caravans.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

+-

What is hire fleet & rental static caravan insurance?

It’s insurance designed for park-owned static caravans, lodges and similar units that are rented out to guests. It usually combines buildings and contents cover with liability cover and, importantly, protection for lost rental income after insured damage.

+-

How is this different from my main caravan park insurance?

Many park policies focus on the park infrastructure and liability, plus arrangements for privately owned units. Hire fleet insurance focuses specifically on park-owned accommodation used for rental – including the buildings themselves, contents and the income they generate. In some cases, these can be combined into one programme; in others, they may be treated separately. We can advise on the best approach.

+-

Can I insure a mix of static caravans and lodges in the same hire fleet policy?

Yes, typically you can insure different unit types together, provided they are park-owned and properly declared. We’ll ask for details such as numbers, types, ages, locations on the park and replacement values for each group of units to structure the cover appropriately.

+-

Does this cover damage caused by guests?

Many policies can include accidental and malicious damage caused by guests, subject to terms and conditions. There may be exclusions (for example, for wear and tear or minor cosmetic issues). We’ll highlight what is and isn’t covered so you can set appropriate guest deposit and charging policies.

+-

Will the insurance cover loss of rental income if a unit is out of use?

Loss of rent cover can usually be included, meaning that if a unit is uninhabitable due to an insured event (such as fire, storm or escape of water), the policy may contribute towards the rental income you lose, up to agreed limits and for a set period. We’ll help you choose realistic sums insured.

+-

How do I work out the correct sums insured for my hire fleet?

Sums insured should normally reflect the cost of replacing the unit on a “new for old” basis (unless otherwise agreed), plus an appropriate amount for park-owned contents. You’ll also need to think about the rental income you would want protected. We can talk through valuation approaches and common pitfalls around underinsurance.

+-

Can you cover parks in flood or high-storm-risk areas?

Flood and storm exposure is a major consideration for caravan parks. In many cases, cover is still available, but pricing, terms and conditions will reflect the risk. We’ll need to understand your location, past claims and any flood or storm resilience measures you have in place. We will then look for insurers willing to consider the risk.

+-

What information do you need to quote for my hire fleet?

Typically we’ll ask for details of your park location, number and types of units, their ages and values, the length of your season, approximate occupancy levels, recent claims, and any special features such as hot tubs or premium lodges. The more accurate the information, the better we can tailor your cover.

+-

Can you help if I’m adding or removing hire fleet units during the year?

Yes. Hire fleets naturally change as you add new stock or retire older units. We can help you adjust sums insured mid-term so your cover reflects the current fleet, and we’ll talk through the best way to structure the policy to accommodate growth or changes.

+-

How do I make a claim on my hire fleet insurance?

In the event of damage or an incident, your first priority is always guest safety. Once immediate issues are dealt with, contact Insure24 as soon as possible. We’ll explain what information is needed – such as photos, unit details, booking information and any witness accounts – notify the insurer on your behalf and support you throughout the claims process.
