Contents Insurance

Insuring the contents of your home is just as important as insuring your home itself, and gives you peace of mind in the case of damage or theft…

Direct Line’s Contents Insurance policy provides new-for-old cover. This means that rather than just paying what a damaged item might be worth now, we’ll replace it with a new item. So whether it’s furniture, carpets, curtains or your personal belongings, there’s no need to worry, as you know you’ll get the item replaced quickly.

What’s more, Direct Line’s Contents Insurance really is a Good Deal Better, as it offers new-for-old replacement cover in the home as well as up to £1,000 for items in the garden. And wherever possible we’ll deliver replacement goods directly to your door.

As for what we insure you against, the list includes fire, smoke damage, lightning, theft, flood and escape of oil or water. It also covers freezer contents, replacement locks and keys (if yours are stolen) and even possessions temporarily removed from the home to another (for example, while children are living away at college). Cash is also insured, up to a maximum of £500.

And to help you ensure that you’re adequately covered Direct Line has provided you with a handy Home Contents Calculator.

It's insurance that should cover all eventualities - we'll automatically increase your contents sum insured by 5% at Christmas or if you are having a family wedding, all giving you a Good Deal Better on your Contents Insurance.

To top it all off, there’s a 24-hour Emergency Helpline based in the UK, ready to sort out any problems. Sounds good? Then get a quote now.
