Insurance - Vantastic Moves

If you request that Vantastic accept responsibility for insuring your goods under our own insurance policy the following insurance terms below will apply. Please read them carefully.

We will require a written declaration of value to be able to accept responsibility of insuring your goods. We cannot accept responsibility without this. If you do not provide us with this written declaration of value for your property unfortunately due to the limits set out in our trading conditions it is as if you are uninsured.

Our insurance has been arranged and underwritten by Policyfast Ltd and a copy of our full policy wording can be requested from us or inspected at our offices upon request.

Please note that this insurance has been arranged solely in the name of our business. As our customer you will have no enforceable rights under our insurance policy.

Sum Insured

As declared to us in writing. The sum insured shall not exceed £10,000 unless confirmed in writing by us.

Publicity Liability

Despite all best effort, accidents can still happen. Which is why you can rest easy that we have Public Liability Insurance cover for up to £2 million should a mishap occur.

Average Condition

If the customer’s goods insured under this insurance are, at the time of loss or damage, collectively of greater value than the value declared, then the Insured shall bear the equivalent proportion of the claim in the same ratio as the actual value exceeds the declared value.
