Black box van insurance

Take control of your cover – discounted renewal prices for safe drivers

Van owners can now enjoy all the benefits of Admiral LittleBox - including free theft tracking

Whether you’re driving a small van for a delivery business or a larger van hauling furniture around, having a black box fitted could make all the difference in helping to get your van on the road at a more affordable price.

Insurance can be expensive, particularly van insurance for young drivers just starting out. But with Admiral LittleBox for Van, we aim to make insurance affordable for our customers.

What is van black box insurance?

Black box insurance – sometimes called van telematics insurance - is a small device fitted out-of-sight in your vehicle which looks at driving style and measures things like braking and speed to give you a driving score.

The information collected helps rewards safe drivers with a reduced premium - the better you drive, the more you save.

LittleBox gives you more control over the cost of your insurance and helps good drivers get a fairer price. If you don’t drive very well and struggle to get a good score, you may not get a discount at renewal.

Great reasons to choose Admiral Van Insurance with black box

Free Theft Tracking

Theft Tracking is included as standard on active LittleBox policies. So if your van's stolen, all you need to do is call our claims team, with your crime reference number, and we'll speak to the police to help give you the best chance possible of getting your van back.

No mileage restrictions

You choose your maximum mileage – it just needs to be over 1,900 miles a year.

We cover vans of all sizes

We offer insurance for small, transit and larger vans up to 3.5 tonnes.

Is black box van insurance for me?

While a telematics policy is often aimed at young, new drivers, Admiral black box insurance can be for any safe driver looking for a reduced premium, no matter what age!

Young drivers are often charged more for insurance as they’re viewed as a higher risk, but a black box gives you the chance to show you’re a good driver.

The van telematics technology monitors how and when you drive along with lots of other risk factors to help calculate your driving score. Get a good driving score and you could get a cheaper insurance price at renewal.

You can drive anytime you like with LittleBox, but regular late-night driving (10pm-4am) will reduce your overall driving score, which means you may not get as big a discount at renewal. So if you need to drive your van overnight, it may not be the best option for you.

Will you cover my van?

We can fit LittleBox into most vans on the market; we cover vans, pick-ups and tippers up to 3.5 tonnes.

Your van must:

  • Be under 14-years-old
  • Be worth more than £750
  • Cover over 1,900 miles a year

If you're unsure, simply give one of our team a call on 0333 234 0038 to double check.

See what kind of driver you are

With the use of your own personal online dashboard, you'll get regular updates on how good a driver you are and tips on how you can improve your driving score.

Levels of black box van insurance

We have three levels of cover for you to choose from: Comprehensive, Third Party, Fire & Theft cover or Third Party Only cover.

Comprehensive

The highest level of cover you can buy - includes Third Party, Fire & Theft, pays out to repair or replace your van if it's damaged in an accident or suffers malicious damage.

Third Party, Fire & Theft

Covers your van for damage caused by fire or theft but not if it’s damaged in another way, such as a crash. If you’re involved in an incident, we’ll pay out to the other driver.

Third Party Only

Protects you if you damage someone's property or injure them while driving, as well as your passengers if they suffer an injury while in your van. You’re not covered if your van is stolen or damaged in a fire.
