What is van insurance for personal use?

Personal van use, also known as private van use, covers you and your van for everyday driving. It’s sometimes known as Social, Domestic & Pleasure (or SD&P for short).

This type of van insurance protects you for most types of personal journeys, including weekends away, hobbies and shopping trips. It does not cover you for work or business use, or commuting to and from work (for that, you’ll need a commercial van insurance policy).

  • Vehicle details: We'll need the make, model and registration number of your van, along with any modifications you've made.
  • Intended use: Tell us how you’ll use your van, whether it's for occasional social trips and weekends away, or commuting to a regular place of work or study.
