Get a quoteYour HGV insurance questions answered
[+] If I get an online quote, can I compare HGV insurance prices?
Yes, you can compare prices from a number of leading UK insurers. Staveley Head was the first UK broker to offer quote comparisons for HGV insurance and we are continually adding further insurers to our panel.
[+] What types of vehicle can I cover under an HGV insurance policy?
We offer cover for all vehicles between 7.5 and 44 tonnes, with the exception of plant and agricultural vehicles.
[+] Will my policy restrict what I can use my lorry for?
All policies carry exclusions, but generally, provided you have told us beforehand what you intend to use your vehicle for, we can arrange a suitable policy.
[+] Can I take my truck into Europe?
Of course. We understand that many hauliers need to make regular trips into Europe. We can offer a choice of annual European cover for those making regular trips, or temporary cover for one-off journeys.
[+] What types of goods will my policy allow me to carry?
As with all classes of insurance, we can usually arrange cover for all types of goods provided you tell us what you intend to carry. Typically, HGV insurance policies will allow the carriage of groupage but exclude theft-attractive or hazardous goods.
[+] Can I transfer my No Claims Bonus from another insurer?
Provided your No Claims Bonus was earned on a vehicle of similar type and size, we will accept a transfer and allow the equivalent level of discount. The policy from which the No Claims Bonus is being transferred must have been with a UK insurer and have expired within the last two years.
[+] Will I get a like-for-like replacement vehicle in the event of an accident?
Typically, most HGV insurance policies will not provide a replacement vehicle. However, we are able to offer separate cover for such eventualities to run concurrently with your vehicle policy.
[+] What other policies will I need in addition to HGV insurance?
The only insurance you will need to satisfy current legislation is motor insurance and Employer's Liability insurance if you employ anybody. However, it may be that you will need additional cover, such as goods in transit or public liability, to comply with the terms of your contract. We're able to tailor a package to suit your needs.
