Home domicile and insurance for full timing

Cummins: Do you have full-timer coverage for the belongings you carry? I assume you're carrying everything with you if you're full-time.

That's interesting Cummins, didn't realize anyone would do that, whos your insur carrier if you don't mind me asking??

We are currently full timing. Insurance through Foremost.

Not sure, thought about that after I posted...have gotten good answers here though.
Thanks everyone for great responses, guess I'll check with a different company.

Try an agency like Miller Insurance.

To the best of my knowledge State Farm doesn't actually insure RV's - they offer it as a convenience to home owners but actually contract the insurance out to another vendor. It tends to be invisible to RV owner until he has a problem or drops his homeowners insurance.

I currently have insur on 2 RVs with SF now, living with sweetie in her home but I also have renters insur to cover my stuff, maybe that's the reason they are covering my RVs...not sure.

^^^^^ This.

I was a longtime SF customer (over 30 years now and still am other than RV and airplane) and had an unfortunate RV incident involving a parking accident. The quote for repair was $500 more than the deductible and after going through hoops and finding out that the adjuster worked for Brand X, with a different set of standards for adjustment than SF, I decided it just wasn't worth it and paid the repair myself and never filed a claim.

I believe that SF subcontracting the coverage out didn't necessarily mean that one had less actual coverage, but the hoop-jumping increased geometrically. Dropped RV coverage from SF and went with Progressive for RV coverage for the last two years of owning the RV.

"Your problem is State Farm just doesn't have that type of coverage.
Ins. Company issue NOT FL State restriction"

This is correct.

You should avoid like the plague, anyone who says there's some kind of Florida Law that stops them from insuring you. No such law exists. They probably just don't offer full timer insurance (or know what it is).

I fulltime and have Florida as my domicile. I also have National Interstate through Miller Insurance in Oregon. Both Miller Insurance and National Interstate are very 'fulltimer' friendly. Give Miller a call.

No matter where you go, make sure they understand you will be a 'full timer'.
