What is small business fleet insurance?

Simply put, small business fleet insurance allows all the vehicles in a small business’s fleet to be insured under one policy. This type of insurance is tailored to businesses which have small fleets of three or more vehicles which are used for purposes relating to the business.

Small businesses take many forms and operate a huge range of vehicle fleet types, some examples can include:

  • Courier fleets
  • Vans used by tradesmen
  • Private ambulances
  • Taxi companies
  • Company cars

Of course, some small businesses will operate fleets that contain a mixture of vehicle types. For example, a taxi company may have a mixture of cars and minibuses that need insuring under the same small business fleet insurance policy, or a plumber may have a car and a van that they use for commercial purposes, depending on the requirements of the job.

Do I need small business fleet insurance?

As you may already be aware, insuring a small business fleet can be a little more complicated than insuring a single car for personal use; there are more legal considerations that need to be made, and when you are running a business it can add to your already sizeable workload. By choosing small business fleet insurance you can enjoy a huge range of benefits that can save you time and money.

Fleet insurance for small businesses can form a core model for business operations, helping to streamline services and keep administration time and costs down. Generally, small business fleets operate between 3 and 10 vehicles at any one time.
