Millions of people dream of a home that is mobile
and takes them to wherever they fancy. This on-the-move home
is known more popularly as a touring caravan and doesn’t
come cheap, which explains why very few of those millions
of people possess one. It may cost anywhere between £5000
and £20,000. Then there are many who would prefer
to acquire a caravan without spending a dime. Statistics
show that around 5000 touring caravans are stolen each
year. Many are reported stolen from caravan storage
compounds and caravan parks. Some are stolen from under
the very noses of the owners – outside their
brick & mortar homes!
A security device is a must-have for a caravan. So is insurance.
The latter more so, because thieves have devised ways to deactivate
some security devices.
If
you’re
fond of traveling and own a caravan or motorhome, then
you would be best advised to secure and insure your
mobile home. Besides a fool-proof alarm system, we recommend
a quality insurance product that protects your investment against loss from accidents, fire and theft.
You would also need third party liability indemnity insurance
to protect yourself against claims made by others.
