A few tips to save on your next RV insurance policy

Combine your insurance products

Most insurers will offer you considerable discounts on your insurance premiums if you insure several recreational vehicles, your car and/or your home all with them. Take inventory of your insurance needs and try to combine them to save.

Analyze your needs

Do you drive your RV on Canadian or US roads during the summer period, or does it remain parked in a campground? This question will help you identify your needs and thus determine whether you should consider additional coverage or stick to the basics.

Compare prices

Your insurance premium can vary significantly from one insurer to another, especially due to factors such as the crime rate in your neighbourhood. Each insurer has its own risk tolerance, which is why it can be beneficial for you to shop around for your insurance and compare prices.

Focus on maintenance

A well-maintained RV will definitely save you some claims. Be sure to follow your maintenance guide to the letter to travel safely all summer long. Other breakdowns can occur when your RV is stored during the winter, such as its water system freezing if not properly winterized. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
