Travel trailer insurance is designed to reduce the financial burden of unexpected events so that you can get back to camping and adventuring.

Does my car or home insurance policy cover my Travel Trailer?

In some cases, your home insurer may allow you to add a trailer to your policy. However, there are some downsides to doing this:

Limited coverage (there may not be roadside assistance, emergency vacation expense coverage, liability coverage or protection for outbuildings)

Eligibility requirements

Your trailer may not be adequately insured

Home premiums will jump after a claim

Some insurers do not offer coverage for trailers at all.

Your auto insurance only extends third-party liability protection to your trailer while you’re travelling. This will not cover any damage to your trailer and you’ll need to pay out of pocket for repairs or replacement.

A separate travel trailer insurance policy is affordable and offers the best coverage in Fort Saskatchewan.

What does travel trailer insurance cost in Fort Saskatchewan?

Starting as low as $200 a year, travel trailer insurance is reasonable considering if you had an accident, it would likely cost you thousands of dollars out of pocket.

What does travel trailer insurance cover in Fort Saskatchewan?

Physical damage and loss to your trailer, its contents and any outbuildings.

Physical Damage/Loss Protection for Fort Saskatchewan Travel Trailer Insurance

A travel trailer insurance policy covers physical damage to your trailer, its contents and outbuildings like a deck or shed. The physical damage must be caused by an insured peril, such as:

Theft or vandalism

Collision

Impact by a vehicle, boat or aircraft

Fire, smoke, or explosion

Earthquake

Wind, hail, or lightning

Falling objects

Water damage (restrictions apply, you may also require add-on coverage)

This isn’t an exhaustive list – check your policy documents for full details. Some coverages are optional and may require additional purchase. In some cases, some protection isn’t available in all areas or under all circumstances.

Personal and Premises Liability

Comprehensive Personal liability

If a visitor steps into your trailer, falls and gets hurt, or you unintentionally cause damage to someone’s property and you get sued, a travel trailer insurance policy will cover your legal fees. This is usually covered by your homeowners policy. We add this if you are a temporary resident only.

Premises Liability

If your travel trailer is parked on a lot rented or leased by you and someone gets hurt or injured while visiting you, you’ll have financial protection if you get sued. For example, your RV resort lot or storage location.

Emergency Vacation Expenses

Imagine there is a wicked windstorm that topples your trailer while it’s in the campground. Luckily, no one was hurt but your trailer is obviously out of commission. Emergency vacation expenses can help cover the additional costs for accommodation while you wait to sort out the situation or continue your vacation.

Roadside Assistance

You planned a fun road trip across the country. Your travel trailer overheated, and you ended up stranded on the highway. Towing a travel trailer is more complicated than towing a regular vehicle. Luckily, our trailer policies include roadside assistance for towing (limited kilometres), running out of gas, empty battery, or getting locked out.

This coverage can give you extra peace of mind while you’re on the road. You can also increase your roadside assistance protection for additional comfort.
