The Fleet Covers We Offer
Professional Indemnity: Professional Indemnity Insurance refers to protection against incorrect or inadequate advice and services that you give. Unfortunately, any business can produce work resulting in both financial and reputational loss for their client and this is sometimes only uncovered long after the contract is completed. In this instance, your company can be held responsible which is when Professional Indemnity Insurance supports your business. At SJL Insurance Services, we provide insurance that can cover expenses, legal fees and pay outs incurred should an allegation be made against you by a client for providing an inadequate service.

FLEET INSURANCE
By law, every road going vehicle must be insured to cover your liability to other people and their property. Many businesses own multiple vehicles, making insuring these individually on an annual basis a logistical and financial problem. However, SJL Insurance Services offer Fleet Insurance which covers all of your business vehicles under one policy, meaning one renewal date. As a FORS recognised insurance broker, you can rely on us to insure your fleet with a customer policy so you only pay for the cover you need.
DO I NEED FLEET INSURANCE?
Fleet Insurance benefits any business with more than one vehicle. Save time, money and effort by utilising a more manageable insurance type. This is the ideal solution for business owners who don’t want the hassle of insuring each of their company vehicles individually.
HAULAGE INSURANCE
Haulage Insurance is insurance cover designed for businesses and operators who transport large volumes of goods to a single destination. This is often as part of a contract, whereby goods are shipped, often over large distances, to a fixed location.
Due to the nature of haulage services and the significant amount of goods they transport (in excess of 3.5 tonnes), vehicles such as HGVs are often operators’ biggest investment.
Haulage Insurance therefore protects businesses and operators of haulage vehicles against risks associated with transported goods over vast distances such as theft, accident and damage.
DO I NEED HAULAGE INSURANCE?
If you transport goods over large distances in vast loads and have expensive vehicles to do so, having Haulage Insurance could make all the difference to the longevity of your business should anything happen in transit. Despite the size of your company, the correct cover is imperative for ensuring your HGVs are protected.
If you are also contracted to arrange the storage of third-party goods, then it is essential that you are correctly covered, should any loss or damage occur. Your customer’s requirements may vary and so restrictions and limitations within your policy should be considered in detail to ensure the insurance covers any losses. At SJL Insurance Services, we can design a policy around both your needs and your customer’s needs.
However safely your drivers operate your haulage vehicles, there will always be the risk of property damage, injury to an employee or to a member of public. For that reason, it is important that you have Hauliers liability insurance.
GOODS IN TRANSIT INSURANCE?
Goods in Transit Insurance, also know as GIT Insurance, or Marine Cargo Insurance, protects your goods in transit from theft, loss or damage and provides confidence in your delivery services. Cover items that your business moves from one location to another, knowing that you have support should your cargo come to any harm.
A policy can be taken out by either the owner of the goods or by a haulage business carrying the goods.
DO I NEED GOODS IN TRANSIT INSURANCE?
Designed to protect the contents of your vehicles and your goods whilst being transported by others; this insurance is important for any companies that transport items or have items transported on their behalf. Most goods become the responsibility of the buyer when they leave the supplier so choosing the right haulier and having the right insurance is of high importance. Couriers and those in the delivery service have an added need to have the right insurance to protect their customers and themselves.
