Motor Fleet Insurance Tips
We have put together some tips on how you can help with insurance premiums when buying fleet insurance, some of which most people are unaware of but can make a massive difference and help with your Fleet Insurance spend.
Firstly, is to ensure the postcode of where your vehicles are parked overnight is correctly input. You may well have a trading address which is fine for correspondence but if the vehicles are not parked there overnight then make sure you declare the overnight parking postcode for each vehicle. This tip alone can sometimes make huge savings. Trading address’s tend to be in more populated and busy areas that carry a higher insurance rating and home address’s not so much, so this can help to reduce premiums for you as the insurer is then aware of the lower rated area.
Another good tip for your fleet of vehicles is to have good risk management procedures in place. Insurers now tend to favour clients that are taking a pro-active approach to managing their risk. This can include vehicle cameras, trackers and driver training. This strategy helps to minimise claim costs and speed up the overall claim process which all help to reduce claim costs. Insurers are like any other business in that they are there to make a profit so if they can identify clients that are taking this kind of approach, they are more inclined to offer a better rate.
Report claims immediately or as soon as is reasonably possible. Not only is this a condition of your policy but motor claims are massively expensive and the costs start as soon as the accident does. Vehicles have to be towed away and then repaired/replaced, injuries seen too and compensated for, hire cars arranged and solicitors fees paid. These all leads to huge costs so the quicker you report to your insurer, the quicker they can begin and end the process. As a fleet insurance policyholder, you will want the claim costs to be as little as possible as these will reflect on your ‘Confirmed Claims Experience’ or CCE for short. The CCE is one of the main factors a fleet insurer will take into consideration when they are underwriting (Pricing) your policy. The lower the claim costs and the lower the claims frequency (Number of claims) the better.
Lastly is the driving restriction. If most of your drivers are aged 25 years or over but you have 1 driver that’s 23 years old, instead of having any driver over 23 which would then apply to all of the vehicles and increase the overall cost, you can still have the any driver over 25 option but ‘name’ the 23 year old on and perhaps restrict him to 1 or 2 vehicles. This is the more economical way of adding a young driver.
