Storage or ‘laid up’ cover

If you are putting your vehicle into storage for the winter or getting work done, you can insure it on a ‘laid up’ or ‘off road’ cover protecting it from fire, theft, and accidental damage whilst at the declared garaging address. It means you will only pay for the level of cover you need while your car is in storage rather than the level of cover you need when you’re out on the road.
