You’d be crazy not to !!!
If you work as a Wheelie Bin Cleaner, even a small mishap while using vacuums, mops and cleaning chemicals can lead to a costly claim. Public liability insurance is designed to help with third‑party injury or damage claims, including legal costs.
Why it matters: one incident involving residents can mean compensation, repair bills and legal costs — public liability insurance is designed to help with those outcomes.
What public liability can cover
- Third‑party injury claims arising from accidents connected to your work.
- Accidental property damage caused during your work (including at client premises).
- Legal fees for defending a covered claim (policy terms apply).
- Slip risks around wet floors, signage and corded equipment.
- Claims linked to your operations while working at premises you don’t own.
Examples of claims we see
Example: you’re moving vacuums, mops and cleaning chemicals through a customer’s property and accidentally cause damage to flooring or fixtures — public liability insurance is designed for this type of third‑party property claim.
- Injury example: A member of the public trips over your vacuum cable on a staircase.
- Damage example: High‑pressure washing etches brickwork or forces water behind render.
- Another common scenario: A customer slips on a freshly mopped floor where signage wasn’t clear.
Picking the right limit of indemnity
Many clients and contractors ask for cover at £1m, £2m, £5m or £10m. The right limit depends on where you work, contract requirements, and the potential cost of a worst‑case claim.
