How does a renters policy protect my personal property?
A renter’s policy provides named perils coverage. This means that the policy only pays when your property is damaged or destroyed by any of the ways specifically described in the policy. These named perils typically include: • Fire or lightning • Windstorm or hail • Explosions • Riots • Aircraft • Vehicles • Smoke • Vandalism or malicious mischief • Theft • Falling objects • Weight of ice, snow, or sleet • Accidental discharge or overflow of water or steam • Freezing • Sudden and accidental damage from artificially generated electrical current • Volcanic eruptions (but this doesn’t include earthquake or tremors) Renter’s coverage applies to your personal property regardless of location. This means you are covered when you are on vacation, as well as, at home.
