How Do You Make Sure Your RV Is Properly Insured? 

Recreational vehicles (RVs) are large, complex vehicles that often carry valuable items and serve as temporary homes. Any accident, damage or theft involving your RV can lead to significant costs. With RV insurance, you’re better equipped to handle the financial impact of repairs, liability claims and other unexpected events.

Why is RV Insurance Important?

Driving an RV usually means you’re navigating a large, heavy vehicle that can be tricky to maneuver and costly to repair. Many RVs carry personal belongings, appliances and expensive electronics that can get damaged or stolen. Without RV insurance, you might pay for repairs or losses yourself.

How to Properly Insure Your RV

Before you buy a policy, take a moment to consider a few factors. This can help you choose appropriate coverage.

• Know your RV type—Coverage varies depending on whether you own a motorhome, camper van or towable trailer. Motorized RVs usually need liability coverage, while towables may be covered under your auto policy, but not always.
• Consider how often you use it—If you live in your RV full-time, you’ll need more extensive coverage than someone who takes it out a few weekends a year.
• Check for personal belongings coverage—Standard policies may not cover everything inside your RV. If you travel with laptops, cameras or other valuables, look for add-ons that may cover personal items.
• Look into roadside assistance—RVs can break down in remote areas. Some policies offer towing, battery jump-starts and may help with flat tires.
• Review liability limits—Accidents involving RVs can be serious. Make sure your liability coverage is high enough to cover potential damage or injuries.
• Ask about vacation liability—If you park your RV at a campsite and someone gets hurt, this coverage may help with legal or medical costs.
