Portable Equipment

Portable Equipment... for those on the go!

  • €2,000 cover limit
  • Applies to portable equipment in transit and temporarily housed elsewhere
  • Covers accidental loss, theft, destruction or damage of portable business equipment including computers, laptops, tablets, mobile phones, events equipment, tools, etc.
  • Can be added to existing policies

What is Portable Equipment insurance?

Our portable business equipment insurance is specifically designed to cover all types of objects that we would expect practitioners to be using. This would typically include mobile phones, laptops, camera and video equipment, tablets, event and exhibition equipment, tools and more.

These 'portable' items are covered whilst in your office or in transit (provided you sensibly safeguard them, as per the terms)

This will not cover stationary office contents such as desks, filing cabinets and fixtures but we provide office contents insurance which covers stationary equipment. Please visit Office Contents Insurance for further reference.


Do I need it?

If you provide a mobile service, attend exhibitions or are otherwise often on the go, then this insurance is for you. It is specifically for loss or damage of items while in transit or in a secured car or storage location.

You may work at one place, and use a lot of portable equipment such as laptops and phones which isn't covered by standard office contents insurance. Since it's not unheard of to lose or drop something, it's always nice to know your equipment is covered and you don’t need to worry about your stuff getting damaged.

Our insurance policy covers your business against risks such as theft, loss, destruction and damage.


What is covered:

  • - Cover for accidental loss, theft, destruction or damage of portable equipment while in transit
  • - Cover for possessions temporarily housed elsewhere
  • - Laptops, tablets and mobile phones
  • - Video and recording equipment
  • - Event and exhibition equipment
  • - Tools and machinery
  • - Accessories associated with any of the above

What is NOT covered:

  • - Theft of unattended and/or not properly secured portable equipment
  • - Stationary office contents (for such insurance, please visit our Office Contents page)
  • - Electronic data
  • - Breakdown and damage to property being cleaned, maintained or repaired
  • - Damage due to wear and tear or inherent defect

2.      If you want to add this cover mid-term, you will be required to pay the whole amount of the add-on product.


Changes, Cancellation and Renewal

Yes, you can add this additional protection to your existing policy at any time during the period of cover.  We refer to this as a 'mid-term' adjustment.

Simply contact us by phone or email and we will arrange this with you.

Once you have added an additional area of cover to your policy, it cannot be cancelled during the term of the policy.  However, when your policy becomes due for renewal you can remove it from the coverage that you require for the following year's policy.
