Taxi Fleet Insurance

Taxi Fleet Insurance

Taxi Fleet Insurance — Multi-Vehicle Cover for Taxi Operators

Taxi fleet insurance covers three or more taxis under a single policy, simplifying administration with one renewal date and one point of contact. Managing separate policies for each vehicle is time-consuming and often more expensive. A fleet policy lets you insure black cabs, minicabs, minibuses, and mixed fleets under one comprehensive policy.

At Vehicle Cover, we provide flexible taxi fleet insurance customised to your business. Our policies offer coverage for private and public hire vehicles, with options for third-party only, third-party fire and theft, and comprehensive cover. Any-driver options are available subject to age and experience requirements. We also offer mixed fleet policies combining public and private hire vehicles, 24/7 claims management, and monthly payment options.

We insure courier fleets, taxi fleets, minibus fleets, bus and coach fleets, HGV fleets, and company fleets. Whether you operate three taxis or three hundred, Vehicle Cover will find a competitive quote.

Private hire vehiclesare similar to minicabs and cannot be hailed; they must be pre-booked. Public hire vehicles, such as black cabs, are licenced to pick up passengers on the street and at taxi ranks.

Insurers differentiate between these due to varying risk levels, impacting how insurance premiums are calculated.
