VR ET MOTORISÉ
Assurance véhicule récréatif
Motorisé, caravane, autocaravane, roulotte : couverture spécialisée.
IN BRIEF
Motor insurance: vehicle + home on wheels
A motorhome combines a road vehicle AND a mini-residence. The insurance must cover both: collision/liability on the road AND theft/fire/resting contents . A car policy alone is not enough.
Tip: some insurers offer a 15-30% discount in wintering if you store the motorhome in a closed room between November and April. Mention this to your broker.
Motor insurance in Quebec protects your recreational vehicle (RV) — Class A luxury, Class B van, B+, Class C cabover, super C or motorhome — against theft, collision, fire, civil liability and winter storage claims. At Assur360, our AMF-certified brokers compare more than 9 insurers specializing in RVs to find the right coverage for your motorhome, your use (weekend, snowbird in Florida, full-time) and its value.

A motorized vehicle (or motorhome) is a self-propelled RV that combines driving and living — unlike a trailer or fifth-wheel trailer that must be towed. Motorhomes are classified in categories A (luxury/coach), B (campervan/van life), B+, C (cabover) and super C. Each class has a specific pricing due to its value, configuration, and usage.

How to get your quote in 4 steps
Gather the motorhome information
Make, model, year, length, class (A/B/B+/C/super C), VIN, weight, purchase value, options (generator, slide-outs, satellite, solar panels).
Declare use and travel
Recreational use (weekends, holidays), snowbird (1-6 US months), or full-time (main residence). Annual mileage, destinations (QC, Canada, USA, Florida).
Receive quotes
An Assur360 broker compares the offers of specialized RV insurers (Aviva VR, Intact Motorhome, Economical, Belair) and presents the best options.
Activate coverage
Electronic signature, payment, certificate issuance. Pink card valid to cross the US border given within 24 hours.
Travel to the United States and Florida
The vast majority of Quebec RV policies cover the United States at no additional cost for up to 6 consecutive months — ideal for snowbirds on their way to Florida, California or Texas. Beyond 6 months, notify your broker to avoid exclusion.
Full-time use: a special case
Full-time use to be declared
If your motorhome is your main residence (full-time RVer), you must declare it. The policy will then include built-in home protection (similar to a tenant policy). Not declaring = risk of refusal of a claim on any home claim (theft, fire, appliance breakdown).
