Home Contents Insurance

Insuring your household contents

We strongly advise all customers to take out contents insurance.

You can do this either by making your own private arrangements or through a scheme provided by Knowsley Housing Trust in partnership with The National Housing Federations "My Home" Contents Insurance Scheme.

Many people believe that their landlord insures personal belongings against theft, fire, vandalism or burst pipes.

THIS IS NOT THE CASE! Unfortunately many people only find this out after the damage has been done.

Knowsley Housing Trust has made it easy for you to insure your belongings via The National Housing Federations "My Home" Contents Insurance Scheme. Under this scheme it is easy for you to protect your belongings at a special low cost rate. The premiums for standard cover are available for download here (see link at bottom).

To ensure that you are always covered payments must be kept up to date. Failure to do so could affect any claim settlement and will lead to cancellation of your insurance.

Premiums can be paid fortnightly by cash at any Post Office, monthly by direct debit, or annually by cheque/postal order or via debit/credit card.

It is important not to undervalue your contents otherwise the insurer will not pay the full value of your claim.

Please note, if you can't access the link below and would like to apply for Insurance then phone 0845 337 2463 and they will help you fill the form in, over the phone.
