Are the goods inside the vehicle insured?

Do not assume the transported goods are covered by the vehicle policy. Check the wording and consider separate goods-in-transit insurance.

How is the premium calculated?

The quote depends on vehicle type, carrying capacity, IDV, location, usage, policy details and selected add-ons.

Can I add zero depreciation or roadside assistance?

These add-ons are listed in ACKO commercial vehicle materials, but availability and eligibility must be confirmed for the specific vehicle and quote.

Expert Review of ACKO Commercial Vehicle Package Policy - Goods Carrying

A package policy can protect a goods-carrying vehicle against covered physical damage while providing third-party liability protection.
