Most homeowners insurance or renters insurance covers personal property. If you own your home and have insurance, your probably have homeowners insurance like an HO3, HO4, or HO5 policy. These types of policies almost always cover contents. Some people have a SF policy, or standard fire. That covers just the house, nothing inside. Pretty basic policy. Those policies are usually used for rental places, business, non-lived in houses. Its a cheap cheap policy.

You policy may or may not have Replacement Cost Value. Most policies do. If you have an ACV policy, you probably had to ask specifically for it.

To answer your question short and sweet, you need Schedule C Contents coverage.
