Heading out for a camping trip in Delaware is easy with the vast amount of coastline and forests to explore. If your camping vehicle of choice is a recreational vehicle, you'll need to consider the potential risks of driving or hauling a large trailer around the state. The best way to protect your adventures is with Delaware RV insurance.

Finding proper insurance takes some research, and it's always best to call in an expert for assistance. A local independent insurance agent has experience in pulling RV insurance quotes in Delaware and can help you find the coverage you need in case an accident or disaster occurs.

What Does RV Insurance Cover in Delaware?

RV insurance protects you if an unexpected disaster causes damage to your RV or an accident causes injury to you or others. 

For comprehensive coverage, you need a variety of policies. The good news is that your coverage is tailored to meet your needs. You can pick and choose which policies work best for your lifestyle and how you plan on using your RV.

Basic coverages are provided through traditional RV insurance which includes:

• Liability insurance: This coverage pays for medical bills and legal fees if you're in an at-fault accident where others are injured or have property damage.
• Collision insurance: This covers the cost to repair or replace your vehicle if it is damaged or totaled in a collision, regardless of fault. 
• Comprehensive coverage: This covers the cost to repair or replace your vehicle if it is damaged or totaled by a non-collision event such as a hailstorm or theft. 
• Personal injury protection: This coverage will help pay for any personal injuries you endure in an accident whether you were the at-fault driver or not.
• Uninsured/underinsured motorist: This coverage helps pay for any damage that results from an accident with another driver who is underinsured or does not have any insurance coverage.

Many RV owners are adequately covered with the above policies, but you may have additional needs based on the type of RV you own, how often you use it, where you go, and its features. You can speak with your agent about these add-on policies to complete your policy if necessary.

• Contents coverage
• Total loss replacement
• Roadside assistance
• Full-timer liability
• Vacation liability
• Attached accessories coverage

When selecting policies, be sure to set policy limits that are sufficient enough to cover a total replacement or the total value of your RV. 

Is RV Insurance Required in Delaware?

There are three scenarios where RV insurance is required in Delaware: if you've financed the RV, if the RV is drivable (as opposed to towed), or if the RV is rented.

When insurance is required, you'll be legally obligated to purchase liability coverage and personal injury protection insurance at the following minimums.

• Bodily injury liability – $25,000 per person and $50,000 per incident
• Property damage liability – $10,000 per incident
• Personal injury protection - $15,000 per person and $30,000 for all persons per incident

While these minimums will provide you coverage, we recommend discussing additional insurance with your independent insurance agent. You never know when a severe storm or unexpected accident will cause serious damage to your RV.
