What is taxi fleet insurance?

You may benefit from taxi fleet insurance if you own or operate more than 2 private or public hire vehicles, whether your taxi fleet includes multiple cars, limousines or minibus fleet insurance; from an administration point of view, once your taxi vehicle fleet is 'fleet rated' for insurance purposes, it will make life a lot easier for you each time you come to add, change or renew your taxi fleet insurance policy. If you are looking to insure a single taxi, please take a look at our taxi insurance page.

Why use taxi fleet insurance?

As well as a much cheaper alternative, taxi fleet insurance can be a much more beneficial option for a company looking to insure multiple vehicles. One of the most significant advantages is convenience; a taxi fleet insurance policy allows you to manage and renew all your taxis simultaneously instead of keeping track of all the separate renewal dates. Additionally, your vehicles can be legally driven by anyone else on the policy, allowing car sharing or swapping when needed. Taxi fleet insurance also makes it easier to grow your fleet, as it can be easily added to the policy at any time
