Trailers and Vehicles Insurance
For landscapers and many tradies, the ute and the trailer are one working unit. Insuring one without the other leaves an obvious gap.
We arrange cover for work vehicles and trailers together — collision, theft, fire and the way you actually tow and park them.
What it can cover
Work utes and trucks
Commercial motor for vehicles used to tow and carry gear.
Trailers
Box, plant and landscaping trailers — including when detached, if the wording allows.
Theft and overnight parking
Conditions often apply when trailers are left loaded or unattended.
What to check
Detached trailer cover
Confirm the trailer is covered when it is not hooked to the vehicle.
Load vs trailer
The trailer policy may cover the trailer, not loose tools on it. Tools cover is separate.
Security
Wheel locks, hitch locks and where you park overnight can affect a theft claim.
Case study
An example
A landscaper's trailer is stolen from outside a job with mowers strapped on. Trailer cover can respond to the trailer. Tools and equipment cover is what responds to the mowers if they were not fixed equipment on the trailer policy.
Illustrative example only. Cover depends on your policy wording.

Only if the wording says so. Many landscapers need tools and equipment cover as well.
