Cheap van insurance
As a business owner, you can't do without a reliable van. So you certainly don't want to skimp on the quality of insurance but are looking for cheap van insurance. On the other hand, you don't want to pay too much either. Via Alpina.nl search for the cheapest van insurance with the best coverage.
When insuring your van, you have a choice of three forms of insurance:
- WA
- WA + limited casco
- All-risk
Which form best suits you, your company or your van, we will be happy to explain.
When to choose the WA?
This insurance provides coverage against Third Party Liability. You or an employee of your company causes an accident with the van. The injured party can recover damages from your van insurance. They can even submit the claim directly to the insurer. You cannot file the damage to your van with your insurer. This is because the WA van insurance does not provide coverage for that. Only if the van is all-risk insured, you will also be paid for your own damage.
When to choose WA + limited casco?
The WA + limited hull is often taken out if the WA cover is too limited and the all-risk cover too expensive for the delivery van. The cover is an extension of the WA van insurance. This form of insurance has the following additional coverages:
- Lightning damage
- Collision with stray animals
- Hail and storm damage
- Windscreen damage
- Fire and explosion
- Theft and damage due to attempted theft
This is a frequently chosen car insurance for vans that are already a few years old, but still have a high current value.
When to choose all-risk?
A new van should preferably be insured on an all-risk basis. The biggest difference with the WA + limited casco is that damage to the van, for example by collision or vandalism, is paid for by your insurer. If necessary, the damage will be recovered from the other party or the perpetrator. With this type of insurance you can prevent the loss of your van due to a steering error. The insurer will pay for the damage.
Additional insurances for the van
After you have calculated the premium for van insurance, you still have the option of taking out additional insurance. For example, you can think of the damage passenger insurance and the accident passenger insurance. You can also opt for the addition of your own transport. This insures possessions in the van that are not part of the vehicle.
What does the premium depend on?
The premium you have to pay for your van insurance depends on the following factors, among others:
- Which type of insurance do you choose?
- What is the current value of the van?
- What is your postcode?
- What is the age of the regular driver?
- Have you already accumulated claim-free years that you can use?
How can you calculate the premium and insure your van?
With the license plate number and the number of accrued claim-free years, you already know enough to calculate the premium for van insurance. You compare several insurers at once and choose the insurance with the best coverage at the lowest price. Is your van already insured? By comparing you will know within minutes how much you can save if you switch to another insurer. We can help you cancel your current van insurance.
24 hour coverage, 7 days a week
Our van insurance is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week . In most cases, you also get immediate provisional coverage and can hit the road with the van right away.
Insuring a van without a driving licence
Driving a van without a license is not allowed by law. Driving without a license is not an option for van insurance either. The insurance does not provide coverage in that case. But of course you can buy a van and let others drive it. But not all insurers welcome you in that case. We offer help. On Alpina.nl you can insure a van without a driver's license.

Frequently asked questions about van insurance
How does it work with the insurance of VAT and BPM?
Often company cars and private cars used for business purposes can be insured excluding VAT on a delivery van insurance. Company cars that are purchased (new) after 1 July 2005 can, in many cases, also be insured exclusive of BPM. This results in a considerably lower premium because the insurance company assumes a lower value.
This means that the insurance company will also pay out exclusive VAT and/or BPM in the event of a claim.
When can I deduct VAT?
For example, you can deduct VAT on the (purchase of a) business car from your own business. When making a comparison, you are asked whether you can deduct VAT. When you answer 'yes' to this question, the original catalog value (and thus the insured value) is automatically reduced by the VAT. You will then not have to pay any premium on the VAT amount. Of course, any claim payment will also be paid out exclusive of VAT. As a private individual, in principle, you cannot deduct VAT.
You do not charge VAT on the insurance premium but insurance tax. You cannot deduct the insurance tax you have to pay.
Click here for more information about VAT and BPM.
For which vehicles is the van insurance intended?
The van insurance is meant for commercial vehicles (grey registration) with an unladen weight up to 3500 kilograms.
With van insurance, is it important which goods I transport?
In certain cases, it matters for van insurance what items you are transporting. Transporting flammable materials or theft-sensitive goods can affect the premium. We advise you to indicate this when you take out your van insurance. This way you can avoid problems in case of damage.
I use the van as a courier. Is this possible?
Yes, you can. On our delivery van insurance it is also possible to insure delivery vans that are used as courier services.
Is there a limit to the number of miles I can drive my van per year?
Yes, there is often a limit to the number of miles you can drive your van per year. You specify this when you start the insurance and it often ranges from a maximum of 12000 kilometers per year to unlimited. The more miles you plan to drive with the van the higher the insurance premium will be.
