STEP2. REGULATIONS - FOOD SAFETY LAWS |
|
|
 |
Trailer or van cover
Now that you've made sure that any claims against you have been well covered,
you now need to make sure you have adequate cover should somebody decide to run
off with your catering trailer, equipment, stock or days takings. Catering
trailers and vans can be covered for accidental damage, fire damage, theft of
the trailer, catering equipment, stock and money. |
|
|
Cover while towing your catering trailer
Your normal car insurance policy will not normally cover you for towing a
catering trailer and you must ensure that your car or commercial vehicle
insurance provider understands that you will be often towing a catering trailer
and make arrangements for suitable cover. Should your catering trailer be
damaged, cause damage or injury to yourself or any third party you may be liable
to prosecution under the road traffic act and will not be covered for any
possible legal claims that may be made against you. |
|
|
Security devices and storage
Generally speaking the more security you provide on your catering trailer
and the safer it is stored at night the lower your premiums will be. Most
insurance companies offer discounts so shop around and get the best deal but
most importantly get the right cover. We have a range of specialist mobile
catering insurance providers under our
business services directory area who will be able to offer more specialist
insurance advice to suit your individual requirements. |
