Courier Van Breakdown Cover Explained
Courier Van Breakdown Cover is designed to provide assistance when your insured van becomes immobilised following an insured breakdown. Cover includes roadside assistance for a wide range of insured incidents, helping minimise disruption to your deliveries and working day.
Insured breakdowns include electrical or mechanical failure, punctures, flat batteries, lack of fuel, lack of charge, misfuelling, fire, theft, attempted theft, vandalism and certain accidents, subject to the policy terms and conditions.
If your van cannot be repaired at the roadside, Nationwide Recovery is included to help transport your vehicle to your chosen destination or home. Unlike standard Nationwide Cover, this policy also includes Home Assist, providing assistance if your van breaks down at or within one mile of your home address.
This policy is designed to help courier drivers stay mobile by providing practical roadside assistance and recovery when an insured breakdown prevents their journey from continuing.

What's Covered
Courier Breakdown Cover provides assistance if your courier van becomes immobilised following an insured breakdown within the territorial limits of your policy.
Nationwide & Home Cover includes roadside assistance for electrical or mechanical failure, punctures, flat batteries, lack of fuel, lack of charge, misfuelling, fire, theft, attempted theft, vandalism and certain accidents. If your van cannot be repaired at the roadside, your policy also includes Nationwide Recovery together with a range of additional benefits designed to help you continue your journey.
*The insured events above are summarised from the IPID. Full terms, conditions, exclusions and eligibility requirements are contained within the Policy Wording.
Roadside Assistance
If your courier van suffers an insured breakdown, a recovery operator will attend your location and spend up to 60 minutes attempting to repair the vehicle at the roadside.
If the vehicle cannot be repaired during this time, recovery will be arranged in accordance with the Nationwide & Home level of cover.
Overnight Accommodation
If your courier van cannot be repaired immediately, the policy may contribute towards overnight accommodation instead of arranging long-distance recovery.
The available contribution is:
✔ Up to £150 for one person, or
✔ £75 per person, up to a maximum of £500.
Nationwide Recovery
If your courier van cannot be repaired on the same day, Nationwide Recovery allows your vehicle to be transported either to your home address or to a destination of your choice within the territorial limits of the policy.
This benefit is included as standard with Nationwide & Home Cover.
Locked Keys Assistance
If your keys are accidentally locked inside your courier van, a recovery operator will attend and attempt to retrieve them.
The policy covers the call-out costs associated with this service, helping you regain access to your vehicle and continue your journey.
Home Start
If your courier van breaks down at or within one mile of your home address, roadside assistance can be requested to help you get back on the road.
Without Home Assist, roadside assistance would normally only be available when the breakdown occurs more than one mile from home.
Driver Illness or Injury
If illness or injury prevents you from continuing your journey, the policy may contribute up to £500 towards returning your courier van to your home address.
This benefit helps ensure your vehicle can be recovered safely when you are unable to drive.
Alternative Travel
If your courier van cannot be repaired locally and you choose to have it repaired nearby instead of using long-distance recovery, the policy may contribute up to £250 towards alternative travel costs.
This benefit is intended to help you continue your journey while your vehicle is being repaired, subject to the policy terms and conditions.
Caravan or Trailer Recovery
If your courier van breaks down while towing a caravan or trailer of up to 23 feet, it can also be recovered as part of the breakdown assistance service.
Recovery is provided subject to the terms, conditions and limits of your policy.
