Is It Worth the Cost of Insurance If Your Toys Are In Storage?

The agents of The Select Insurance Agency serve the residents of Coppell, TX and the surrounding communities. They are able to answer many questions about insuring recreational vehicles, ATVs and other items that are commonly referred to as "toys". While these vehicles seldom hit the highway, they should still be insured. This is especially true if they are placed in storage for any length of time. 

Protect Your Investment

If you are leaving on vacation or you know you won’t be using your toys for several months, it’s a good idea to make sure they are properly prepared for storage. Give it a good wash and dry it thoroughly. Add a stabilizer to the gas tank and fill it up. Drain any water that may be in the system (jet-skis). Make sure it is properly lubed and greased to prevent the rubberized seals from drying out and cracking. You should also cover your vehicle to protect it from dust and other particles that may fall on it.

Maintaining Your Insurance Coverage

Always maintain insurance on your recreational vehicles while they are in storage. This will protect you from financial loss if they are stolen or damaged in any way. It will also protect you from any type of liability if your vehicle is stored in a public warehouse and someone is injured while moving it or caring for it.

If you live in the Coppell, TX area, call the agents of The Select Insurance Agency and talk to their licensed agents about insurance for all of your toys and recreational vehicles. They will be able to answer any questions you may have on how to properly store your vehicles and what options are available to keep them properly insured during that time.
