Levels of Cover Available
When selecting insurance, an important consideration is the level of coverage you choose. Like standard vehicle insurance, scrap metal and waste disposal van insurance comes in three main types:
- Fully comprehensive insurance – As its name suggests, this is the most comprehensive standard insurance available. Providing all the cover of TPO and TPFT, fully comp will typically include cover of your vehicle in the event of an accident even if it is your fault, and damages to third parties.
- Third-party, fire, and theft (TPFT) insurance – A step up from TPO, this provides additional cover against the theft, or damage or destruction by fire, of your waste removal van or scrap metal van.
- Third-party only (TPO) insurance – TPO is the lowest level of legally permissible insurance to operate a vehicle on the UK’s road network. It only covers injuries or damages caused to a third party or their vehicle when they make a claim, without covering any damage to your own vehicle.
