There are so many variations of breakdown cover that you shouldn’t assume that your trailer is covered in your policy. If you have a trailer, be sure to take this into consideration when you compare breakdown cover.

While most of the major roadside assistance policies, like those from AA, Green Flag and RAC, do offer cover for your trailer, it isn’t always standard.

You should also be aware of restrictions on breakdown cover for trailers. Usually there are restrictions on height and weight when it comes to your coverage, and these requirements vary from one provider to another.

Also keep in mind that even if you have UK breakdown cover that includes the trailer you’re towing at the time of the breakdown, you may not be covered if you’re driving in Europe. You will probably have to pay extra to get breakdown cover for your trailer when driving in the EU.

If you plan on towing a trailer, then breakdown cover is more important than ever. Most people pull a trailer when they’re off on holiday, and a breakdown could easily cause you to miss your ferry or your check-in time at a campground. Most breakdown cover providers now advertise response times of 30 to 40 minutes, so be sure your breakdown cover provider is competitive in terms of response time as well as price and cover for your trailer.
