Hire insurance from Marsh Commercial is stronger than ever

October 01, 2021

Marsh Commercial hire insurance: Same comprehensive cover to protect your business, your employees and your customers.

For many years, we have arranged high quality, competitively priced business insurance and insurance for hirers of plant, tools and equipment. However, we know you can't become complacent as clients' needs and the sector continuously evolve. We believe in putting our customers at the forefront of everything we do. That's why we wanted to reaffirm our commitment to the hire industry by reviewing our offering to enhance it further.

The exciting news for our customers is that in addition to the excellent business insurance we arrange, we can now offer enhanced commission on the insurance that our trusted Appointed Representatives promote to their hirers. We're not tied to any hire association, which means you don’t need to be either. We pay the hire company the commission direct. This means you could earn an even better revenue stream than before.

Here at Marsh Commercial, we are incredibly excited about our collective future. We look forward to supporting the hire industry and helping create an exceptional experience for all.

Our credentials speak for themselves. We are part of the world's leading insurance broker and risk advisor, with a 150-year heritage and over 190,000 small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) clients in the UK. We have access to a wide range of UK leading insurers and specialist providers to meet the specialist needs of the hire industry. Because we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all our 2,500 fully trained experts are on hand to provide advice should you need it and tailor your insurance solution for you. This will save you time; we do the hard work of understanding the finer details of cover so we can explain it to you then search and arrange the insurance that's right for you, at the right price.

Is your property fully protected?

Your hirer will likely have insurance in place, but this may be part of a hired-in extension from a contractor's plant or contract work policy. In this case, the claims excess will be £500 – or higher. Additionally, not all domestic household policies will include cover for hired-in tools, plant and equipment, leaving you exposed to risk.

Our HireGuard solution puts you in control of protecting your property while it's out on hire. This insurance can be sold to your customers, providing cover for:

•            physical loss or damage – throughout Western Europe, including in transit

•            liability limit of £100,000 – with no single limit

•            total replacement value – for property less than 24 months old.

As a HireGuard Appointed Representative, you'll get advice, guidance and comprehensive training from our team of experts. We take responsibility for guiding you through the process of selling a regulated product.

Thanks to a dedicated claims service, settlements will be paid to you, not the hirer. This allows you to avoid the time-consuming administration of recovering the loss directly from the customer, a process that can damage client relationships.

Contact us today if you're interested in becoming a HireGuard Appointed Representative and earning enhanced commission while protecting your property.
