Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about Scania Truck Insurance and General Enquiries

What makes Scania Truck Insurance different from regular truck insurance?

Scania Truck Insurance is designed for the specific needs and value of Scania vehicles. While it covers general risks, policies can be tailored to Scania models, ensuring you get suitable protection for their unique parts and technology.

Do I legally need Scania Truck Insurance?

Yes, if you drive your Scania truck on public roads, you are legally required to have at least Third-Party Liability insurance. This covers damage or injury you might cause to others. Most businesses choose more comprehensive cover to protect their own truck as well.

How can I get a quote for my Scania truck?

Getting a quote is easy! You'll need some basic details about your Scania truck (model, age, mileage), how you use it (what you carry, how many miles), and your driving history. Simply click our 'Get a Quote' button or fill out our online form to get started quickly.

What type of truck insurance is available?

Truck insurance typically consists of liability coverage, cargo coverage, comprehensive coverage, and personal accident insurance. We can tailor options to suit you.

What factors affect my premium and quote price?

A few factors that can affect your premium include the type of vehicle you drive, your driving record, the type and amount of coverage you choose, and the amount of your excess also known as a deductible.

How to get cheaper truck insurance?

Who do I contact in a claim?

In the event of an accident or claim, you should contact your us or your insurer right away.

Do I need extra cover when towing other owners trailers?

Yes, if you need full comprehensive coverage on the trailer you will need to list the trailer on your policy. Some policies will include some default coverage up to a certain limit (usually $50,000 to 100,000) but this is usually for a liability aspect only.

Does truck insurance cover fire and theft?

Yes, comprehensive truck insurance policies provide coverage for theft and fire.

Do I need more cover if I'm carting dangerous goods?

Generally speaking, you will need to take out dangerous goods liability coverage for protection. These limits can range so it's important you talk to us.

Am I covered Australia Wide?

It's important to note though that some policies will have radius limits on them depending what you declared when setting up the policy. If you go outside of this radius limit there may be extra excesses applicable or issues in a claim.
