New years eve neighbor had a tree fall on his trailer. He called foremost and got live operator to start claim process. Call your insurance company right now (825 PM my time right now. Call yours and see if anybody is even there. Little alone ask if you are covered. That would be indicator of how good your insurance company is or is not.

on the "increased premiums" on my outback I got a torn roof from a branch, repaired under trailer policy. Not only did the premium not increase, the following year insurance premium actually went down about 10%.

I would think it would be covered by insurance. Accidents like that is the reason to have insurance.
And even though itโ€™s Saturday night I would probably ask the same question to ease my mind and hopefully enjoy the rest of my stay.

Not trying to be an AZZ... but, it's Saturday night, even if someone tells you that you are covered (which they couldn't tell you without knowing your policy), what does that do other than make you feel better? Not like you're gonna get it fixed tomorrow.

If it makes you feel better, since you were moving, and it was hitched to your TV, your TV coverage may cover it. But, of course, you still will have a deductible.

I'd be more concerned about any damage done where the ladder mounts to the roof. Regardless, we damaged out TT (our fault) and our Allstate RV insurance covered it less the deductible.

Your deductible is probably more than the cost of the ladder.

my ladder got bent in the process, the corner roof has scratch marks but looks like its only scratch no obvious roof damage, the real damage was to my ladder though.
