  • What Is RV Insurance?

RV insurance is very similar to auto insurance, except it is for your RV (Recreational Vehicle). The term RV defines a wide range of vehicles, including motor homes, camper vans and bus conversions. An RV insurance covers any damages that might be incurred to any of these vehicles. Depending on the type of RV you own, you would need to choose between type A, B, or C type RV insurance. A professional insurance agent can help you decide which RV insurance would best suit your requirements. 

  • What Is Covered By RV Insurance?

Perhaps the most common question asked by RV owners looking to purchase insurance, is what will the insurance cover. The basic coverage of an RV insurance includes liability, collision and comprehensive coverage. In addition to that, RV insurance also covers your personal belongings that might be in your RV at the time of an incident, as well as any equipment or accessories such as awnings and satellite dishes that you might have attached to the vehicle. In some cases, RV insurance also covers towing costs if your vehicle needs to be towed. You may choose add-on options like roadside assistance, emergency expenses, vacation liability and replacement cost, to name a few.

  • How Does It Work?

Before investing in an RV insurance, it is prudent to understand how it really works and what would happen in the event that you need to use your insurance.
