What is Portable Equipment Cover?
Many small business owners in New Zealand may find themselves working at multiple locations each day. Many of those small business owners take tools or portable equipment with them from job to job. Often this equipment is highly specialized and can be very pricey.
Have you ever paused to ask yourself what you would do if your portable equipment were to become lost, damaged or stolen? How would you get the job done with limited tools? Would you suffer loss of reputation due to being unable to meet your deadlines? Could you afford to replace your tools and equipment quickly and easily, or would it take you a few days or even weeks to gather the funds to do so? What would you do in the meantime?
Fortunately, there is an insurance product to give you peace of mind should the worst happen to your portable equipment. Portable Equipment insurance (also known as General Property insurance) covers you for loss and damage to items of portable equipment associated with your business. These can include tools of trade and items of stock.
