If you own or operate a Dennis Eagle vehicle, you know it's no ordinary truck. These specialist machines, often seen as powerful refuse lorries, need special protection. Our Dennis Eagle insurance is designed specifically for these unique vehicles, keeping your business safe and running smoothly.

Dennis Eagle is a well-known maker of strong, specialist vehicles, most commonly seen as refuse collection trucks (bin lorries) and other municipal service vehicles. They are built for tough jobs, which means they face specific risks that standard truck insurance might not fully cover.

Your Dennis Eagle vehicles are crucial for your business. Imagine if one breaks down, gets damaged, or is involved in an accident. Without the right insurance, you could face huge costs for repairs, replacements, or legal claims. Specialist Dennis Eagle insurance understands these unique risks, offering protection that fits your specific needs.

This type of insurance is built to give you peace of mind. It typically covers:

  • Accidental Damage: Protection if your vehicle is damaged in an accident.
  • Theft and Fire: Cover if your Dennis Eagle vehicle is stolen or catches fire.
  • Third-Party Liability: Important cover for damage or injury you might cause to other people or their property.
  • Specialist Equipment: Coverage for the unique parts of your Dennis Eagle vehicle, like the compacting gear on a refuse truck or other bodywork.
  • Breakdown and Recovery: Options to get your vehicle fixed or recovered if it stops working.
  • Business Interruption: Some policies can even help cover lost income if your vehicle is out of action.

If your business owns, leases, or operates any Dennis Eagle vehicle, you need this specialist cover. This includes:

  • Waste management companies
  • Local councils and municipalities
  • Private contractors using refuse or other specialist Dennis Eagle vehicles
  • Any business relying on these heavy-duty machines.
