Question:
What happens when I move home?
Answer:
If you are buying a new home then your new home will be covered for up to 3 months from the date contracts are exchanged or, in Scotland, the date your offer is unconditionally accepted.
If you are selling your home as well then the buyer will be covered up to the date the sale completes. This cover only applies where the property is not insured under another policy.
When you move home you will have household removal cover which is included with Value, Standard & Finest policies. This can cover you for accidental loss of or damage to your contents while they are being permanently removed by a professional removal firm from your home to any other private property you are going to live in within the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands. This includes while they are being temporarily stored for up to 72 hours.
