Before you start

In order to submit your application, there are a few things you will need to hand:

  • Your company letterhead
  • Your Public Liability Insurance Certificate – we will not be able to open your account if you do not have this.
  • Your Hire In Plant or Contractors' All Risk Insurance Certificate
  • Proof of your home address if you are applying as a non-registered company

This application is not to be used for consumer contracts. A consumer contract is a contract entered into with a person acting in their own capacity and not for or on behalf of any business.
