Commercial Van Insurance – Same Trend as Celtic Tiger
Caeva O'Callaghan | September 6th, 2018
In August this year, the Ulster Bank Purchasing Managers Index showed 59 straight months of an increase in construction activity and a significant surge in July. This means that more and more tradespeople are at work, and consequently, on the road. The demand for commercial van insurance has followed suit.
More Vans on the Road
Just look at the M50, M1 or M6 any day of the week and you will see many more vans on the road.
Have you recently tried to get a plumber or electrician in the last while? Most of them are booked up for two months solid.
With this surge in construction activity, we have also seen an increase in Van Insurance Quotes.
We are seeing this expansion in three areas:
1) Fleet Insurance from companies putting more vehicles on the road.
2) Tradespeople who left their trade for a number of years returning as a result of a surge in demand.
3) Tradespeople who left the country during the recession now coming back and starting up their business again.
