Take excess, for example. The excess in your van insurance policy is the amount that is not covered when you make a claim. When calculating the costs of your van insurance, many insurers will use a minimum level of excess which is known as a compulsory excess. The amount of compulsory excess will depend on your personal circumstances and the levels of cover provided by your van insurance policy. If you have a Third Party, Fire and Theft van insurance policy for example, insurance companies will usually ask you to pay for the first £100 of any claim should your van be stolen or damaged by fire. If you are covered for windscreen damage, an insurance company will typically ask you to pay the first £50 of a windscreen claim.

In addition to the compulsory excess, you can choose to pay a voluntary excess - that is, a greater part of any claim that you might have to make - in return for which an insurance company will reward you by asking for lower premiums. In other words, taking excess alone as a measure, your insurance policy will be cheaper the more you are prepared to pay above the compulsory excess. If you do not want to pay any voluntary excess, your premiums will be higher.
The extreme situation is of course where you are willing to pay for the entire amount of any claim, in which case your premiums are a hypothetical zero and there is no point in having a van insurance policy.
Reducing the costs of your van insurance by agreeing to pay a greater part of any claim can, however, have disastrous consequences. Imagine a situation where your vehicle is written off for instance and you can’t find the resources to pay your share of the replacement costs. If you do have the resources then there’s no problem, but the situation can be avoided by choosing not to pay a voluntary excess but to pay a higher premium instead. The choice is yours and you need to assess the risk, just as the insurance company does when it looks at your personal circumstances.
The cost of your van insurance is likely to be greater if an insurance company considers you to be more likely to make a claim or to have a claim made against you as the result of a road traffic accident. You are more likely to be involved in a claim if you have points on your licence for dangerous driving or drink driving, for example. There are several things you can do yourself therefore to reduce the costs of your van insurance.
