Self Drive Hire Insurance

Flexible and specialist self-drive hire insurance, for three vehicles or more

What Is Self Drive Hire Insurance?

If you operate a vehicle hire company, self-drive hire insurance is essential. When renting out vehicles you need to make sure you have insurance in place that covers vehicles that are both waiting to be or are currently on hire. Standard motor insurance policies will not cover you correctly, so it is important to get a self-drive hire insurance policy to protect yourself sufficiently.

How Self Drive Hire Insurance Works

The key consideration of self-drive hire insurance is that it provides standard motor insurance cover, which is a legal requirement and covers you if you are hiring your vehicles out to be driven by someone other than the owner. Important requirements for our policies include:

Minimum requirement of 3 year’s fleet specific experience
Minimum vehicle requirement of 3, with no maximum cap
