Imagine for a second that you are travelling to your holiday destination and your caravan breaks down. You call your insurance company only to find that you are not covered for breakdown with your caravan. You then have to find someone to come out and recover the caravan. This may work out to be very costly depending on how far away you are from home. If you have insurance specifically for caravan breakdown, your vehicle is protected for breakdown and insurance company pays out for the recovery of your caravan.

When considering breakdown insurance you may wish to check the benefits you are given in your policy. For instance, if you have your caravan on your driveway and you are unable to move it, does the policy cover home breakdown?
