Frequently asked questions

Do I need special insurance for a food truck in the UK?

Yes. Catering vehicles have different risks than standard vans — fire hazards, hot equipment, and public liability. A specialist food truck insurance policy is essential.

Can I insure multiple catering vans?

Absolutely — we offer flexible multi-vehicle catering insurance policies.

Is public liability insurance included?

Not automatically, but it can be added to your policy. This is crucial if you serve food to the public.

Can my catering equipment be covered under my commercial vehicle insurance?

Yes. You need to make sure the value of the equipment is included in the overall value of the vehicle.
