Title: insurance is it cheaper for private use.

Would it be cheaper for insurance if you bought a van for private use than what we pay for the same van as a business. ???

yes, but if you had a bang in it while working you wouldn't get a bean.

I am not using my van for private use Just wondered how I would be a bigger risk if I drove with the same attitude in either van.Before becoming a window cleaner I drove my car for the same amount of miles p.a.  as my business van with the same attitude to driving why would i BE A BIGGER RISK.  Insurance in the U K is a big rip off.

you need commercial van insurance.simple as that!!if your using it for work all day then get it!!it has shot up over the last 12 months though.

try autonet or budget insurance.also fully comp can be cheaper than T,P,F&T.
