What other insurance products does Economical offer?

In addition to covering most vehicle types (including campers, motorhomes, antique cars, snowmobiles, ATVs, mopeds and motorcycles), Economical also offers a full range of home insurance options, plus coverage for businesses, farms and groups.

Home insurance: Policies for house, cottage or condo, plus tenants and landlords. Coverage is also available for watercraft and trailers and for home-based businesses. Insurance covers the property (if you own), personal items, liability, identity theft, hotel stays, meals, other living expenses if certain kinds of disasters make your home unlivable, and more. Economical is a leading provider of “special risk” home insurance, meaning it may be an option for those who have a hard time finding coverage elsewhere, thanks to a history of claims, missed premium payments, or other reasons.

Business insurance: Coverage for your place of business whether you own or lease, plus liability and commercial vehicles. Surety bonds are available for businesses in the transportation and logistics or construction and contracting industries.

Farm insurance: Protection tailored for different types of farms, from small to large, with policies specialized for different agricultural products.
