Van insurance


Just received my renewal for 18.6ft van insurance and after reducing the cover value by 5% for "depreciation" they have still manage to put the premium up by a whopping 20%. I wont mention the company yet, but would appreciate other nomads recommendation's.

Cheers

 Yep,  I went to WFI also.  Saved about $200 . You gotta watch insurance companies.  They jack the price up every year.  It's called the lazy tax. 

I track it in an excel sheet and change the company if it goes up very much.  It's a game. 

 

The other thing is gets insurance that matches your needs.  Don't pay for services you'll never use.
