VR Insurance
Complementary coverage for vehicle insurance products
Personal liability limited to 2,000,000$ worldwide.
In addition to personal liability, goods transported and stored on a simple basis can also be insured.

TRANSPORTED GOODS
Personal property usually carried by the nomad customer. They are covered by "all risks" protection.
e.g. laptop, tablet, handbag....
STORED GOODS
Goods that the nomad customer deposits temporarily or permanently at a given location. They are also covered by "all risks" protection and must be stored in the province of Quebec.
Ex: goods left on a campsite, in a garage or warehouse.

How much does it cost to insure my recreational vehicle?
The cost of insurance for a recreational vehicle varies according to a number of factors, including the type of vehicle, make and model, driver's age, use of the vehicle, place of residence and so on.
It is therefore difficult to give a precise cost without knowing this information. In general, insurance for a recreational vehicle can cost anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand dollars a year, depending on the factors mentioned above and the insurance options you choose. So it's important to research and compare different insurance offers to find a policy that suits your needs and budget. It's also a good idea to consult an insurance broker to help you find the best insurance for your recreational vehicle.
Why insure your RV?
Many factors will influence the choice of your next motorhome or caravan insurance policy and lead you to the most appropriate protection solution, depending on your needs and habits.
The basics of recreational vehicle insurance
You'll see that there are many different types of trailer or fifth-wheel insurance policies to choose from, each with its own unique features, and all of them providing protection against accidents. This is the basis of RV insurance in Quebec.
What about liability coverage? What about it?
Not only is liability coverage useful, it's mandatory. So you'll have no choice but to take out at least a million dollars' worth of coverage for your travels in Quebec.
For your travels in America, Assur360 advises you to consider increasing the amount of insurance you have on your motorhome, fifth wheel, caravan, trailer and car.
Valuable possessions in your RV
If your car usually only contains a few electronic devices and gadgets of no great value, this is not at all the case for your caravan or Fifth Wheel, a completely different vehicle, which should surely contain much more expensive goods and valuable furniture.
The purpose of RV insurance is to protect you against break-ins during the summer months.
However, some cover companies will offer you comprehensive insurance, which you may or may not accept, depending on your protection needs. In fact, this is the main difference between conventional car insurance and RV insurance: recreational vehicles will benefit from protection for the objects they contain.
For your information, some companies even offer additional protection for furniture and outdoor goods if your caravan, trailer or Fifth Wheel is parked all summer long. Very interesting!
How much does the best vr insurance cost?
Just like the cost of car insurance, the cost of the best cheap RV insurance is determined by a number of factors: where you live, the age and gender of the owner, the market value of the vehicle, the type of caravan or Fifth Wheel, and the quality of your driving record.
Information is the key!
Without being informed, it's almost impossible to know the exact price of your next warranty. So don't hesitate to compare and ask for evaluations and quotes. This will help you find the protection solution that best suits your needs.
What type of protection should I choose?
Depending on the type of recreational vehicle you tow and how you use it, your choice of protection will depend enormously.
A caravan or Fifth Wheel designed to be parked all summer in some space should not be insured in the same way as an RV that spends the whole season on the road.
Are you planning to hit the American highways in a recreational vehicle?
Don't neglect to insure your towing costs. This will help you avoid unpleasant surprises and unpleasant incidents.
Whether you've run out of fuel, suffered a mechanical breakdown, got a flat tire or need a trailer, our roadside assistance service is available 24/7 throughout North America and Canada to lend a hand.
Thinking of camping this summer?
If you plan to leave your caravan or Fifth Wheel parked all summer or even all year round, you may want to consider different types of liability cover, such as long-term resident and short-term holidaymaker.
It's all very well to travel, but...
Should a mechanical breakdown or breakdown of any kind occur during your trip, our Mechanical Breakdown Trip Interruption coverage is there to support you. This coverage will reimburse you for all your accommodation expenses and any other details associated with this unforeseen event. Frankly, it's worth thinking about!
If you're planning to store your RV outdoors during the cold season, don't hesitate to ask about storage covers.
