Unlike a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.assur360.ca\/en\/blog\/insurance\/recreational-complete-coverage-for-your-rvs-motorcycles-and-more\/the-importance-of-rv-insurance\/\">conventional motorhome<\/a>, a trailer does not have an engine and depends on a towing vehicle to get around. This creates <strong>two very distinct insurance contexts<\/strong>: hitched (partially covered by your car policy) and detached (requires its own policy).  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Quebec, trailer insurance is <strong>not mandatory by law<\/strong>, but it is <strong>strongly recommended<\/strong> by the <a href=\"https:\/\/lautorite.qc.ca\/\" rel=\"noopener\">AMF<\/a> and often required by lenders when the trailer is financed. Given the average value of a family trailer ($30,000 to $80,000), an adapted policy costs from $25 per month, which is still marginal compared to the risk of total loss. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The-5-types-of-trailers-and-their-specificities\"><\/span>The 5 types of trailers and their specificities<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The term &#8220;trailer&#8221; includes several categories of towed caravans.

Here is the rule in detail.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When your trailer is <strong>hitched to your towing vehicle and on the move<\/strong>, the <strong>liability<\/strong> portion of your automobile policy usually extends to the trailer. In other words, if you cause an accident with the trailer, the damage you cause to others will be covered by your car insurance. But as soon as the trailer is <strong>detached and parked<\/strong> (at the campsite, in your backyard, at a friend&#8217;s house), it is no longer covered by your standard car policy. Then you need dedicated <strong>trailer insurance<\/strong>.   <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"overflow-x:auto;margin:32px 0;\">\n  <table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:14px;\">\n    <thead><tr style=\"background:#0d1f2d;color:#fff;\"><th style=\"padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;\">Situation<\/th><th style=\"padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;\">Standard car policy<\/th><th style=\"padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;\">Dedicated trailer policy<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr style=\"background:#f8fafc;\"><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;\">Trailer on the move<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Civil liability included<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Property damage + liability<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;\">Collision with Trailer<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">No Trailer Damage Coverage<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Full Coverage<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr style=\"background:#f8fafc;\"><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;\">Trailer detached to the campsite<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Not covered<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Damage + theft + site liability<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;\">Theft of parked trailer<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Not covered<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Covered for all risks<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr style=\"background:#f8fafc;\"><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;\">Hail, falling trees, fire<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Not covered<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Covered with all risks<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;\">Winter Storage<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Uncovered<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Covered (frost, rodents, vandalism)<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr style=\"background:#f8fafc;\"><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;\">Personal Contents Inside<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Not Covered<\/td><td style=\"padding:12px 16px;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;color:#334155;\">Personal Effects Endorsement<\/td><\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"background:#fef2f2;border:2px solid #ef4444;border-radius:12px;padding:24px;margin:32px 0;display:flex;gap:16px;align-items:flex-start;\">\n  <div style=\"font-size:28px;flex-shrink:0;\">\u26a0\ufe0f<\/div>\n  <div>\n    <p style=\"color:#991b1b;font-weight:700;font-size:16px;margin:0 0 8px;\">Costly mistake to avoid<\/p>\n    <p style=\"color:#7f1d1d;font-size:14px;margin:0;line-height:1.6;\">Never assume that your home insurance covers your trailer parked in the backyard. <strong>Most home policies exclude RVs and trailers<\/strong> from the scope of coverage, even on your own property.

However, <strong>nearly 20% of trailer claims occur during the winter<\/strong>. Here are the risks to anticipate and the best practices to adopt:  <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n  <li><strong>Rodents<\/strong> : Mice and field mice love electrical wiring and insulation. Solution: airtight air cap, repellents, traps. <\/li>\n  <li><strong>Frozen pipes<\/strong> : Drain water tanks completely and add non-toxic RV antifreeze.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Collapse of the roof<\/strong> under the weight of accumulated snow: shovel regularly or use a temporary shelter.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Theft<\/strong> : a mechanical drawbar lock ($100 to $300) and a GPS tracker ($150 to $400) drastically reduce the risk.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Water infiltration<\/strong> : check the seals and roof for tightness before storage.<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Vandalism<\/strong> : Prefer a fenced site or indoor storage at a dealership.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure your policy <strong>maintains comprehensive and theft coverage during the storage period<\/strong>.

On average, expect to pay between $25 and $70 per month for a 22- to 30-foot family trailer. <\/div>\n  <\/details>\n  <details style=\"border:1px solid #e2e8f0;border-radius:8px;padding:0;margin-bottom:12px;overflow:hidden;\">\n    <summary style=\"padding:18px 20px;cursor:pointer;font-weight:600;color:#0d1f2d;list-style:none;background:#f8fafc;\">Can we insure a trailer used year-round?<\/summary>\n    <div style=\"padding:16px 20px;color:#334155;line-height:1.7;border-top:1px solid #e2e8f0;\">Yes, but the cost and conditions vary: the insurer will consider the caravan as your main residence, which can increase the premium by 30 to 50% compared to seasonal use.
