Full-Time vs. Part-Time RV Insurance: Which One Do You Need?

You love the freedom your RV provides for traveling, but you also have a home in Decatur, AL. Does it make sense to get full-time RV insurance if you have a permanent home? In some cases, yes. Will Wright Agency Inc. can help you determine whether you need full-time or part-time RV insurance.

The Amount of Usage Matters

If you use your RV for six months or more during the year, full-time RV insurance is recommended. A full-time policy offers broader coverage, including liability for guests inside your vehicle and higher limits for personal belongings. This coverage is similar to a homeowner’s policy, providing loss assessment for repairs and living expenses if your RV becomes uninhabitable due to a covered risk. Many policies also include emergency expense allowances and medical payments coverage for you and your guests, regardless of fault.

When to Choose Part-Time RV Insurance

If you only use your RV for weekend travel or occasional long trips, part-time RV insurance may be sufficient. When not in use, your RV should be stored securely. Part-time policies typically provide general liability protection, covering damage to other property or vehicles in an accident, as well as protection for your RV and personal items inside. Unlike full-time policies, part-time coverage is more limited and similar to auto insurance. Some policies may include vacation liability, which applies when your RV is set up at a campsite.
