Insurance Tractor insurance

You may be able to just call the county and have an address assigned. There was no fee for doing this on my farm and it took about a day. All I needed was the legal description/account number from the county tax site.
When I got insurance on my tractor it was called an inland marine policy. That term might help you shop around. Some insurers offer them and some don't.
If the insurer really wants it in an enclosure one of those heavy duty tent like portable garages could fill the bill. Might be a regional thing but here in Texas the insurer did not really care whether things were in a barn or not. You can see lots of equipment sitting outside driving through a rural area.

I've looked into getting insurance for my tractor with little luck. My current problem is that I don't have a valid street address at my property and everyone I've talked to thus far needs an address to base their premiums from. When they hear that my tractor is basically under a tarp in the middle of the woods they really back off. Now I'm close to pouring my footers which will start the process of obtaining an address and I would like to know if there are any insurance companies that you would recommend. My property is in Rockbridge County in VA.

LBrown.... Yes it is. That was a very specific question I asked. They said as long as the tractor is used for maintaining the primary residence it was covered. I had used the example with the insurance company that I was rebuilding my privacy fence and assuming I didn't need it for a while would it still be covered again they said yes. When I was with another insurance company they had told me no.
