Get a renewal quote 21 days early (but don\u2019t worry if you miss it)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re renewing your taxi insurance policy, try not to wait until the last moment to shop around. It\u2019s usually best to take out your next policy around 21 days before your current policy expires. That being said, if you\u2019ve already missed this window don\u2019t worry. Even shopping around five days before your existing policy expires can help to save you money on your renewal premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-3-get-on-the-electoral-roll\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Get on the electoral roll<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re eligible to vote, make sure you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/register-to-vote\">registered on the electoral roll<\/a>. This brings with it many benefits beyond the political ones and it can even reduce your premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why? Insurers calculate your premium by working out how likely you are to make a claim. Essentially, the higher the perceived risk, the higher your premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that\u2019s what\u2019s working in this case \u2013 those registered to vote are statistically less likely to make a claim, which can therefore lower your insurance quote. It\u2019ll also help the insurance company verify who you are and where you live, which lowers the risk of possible identity fraud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even if you were born in a different country and moved to the UK, you might still be eligible if you\u2019re from a Commonwealth or EU country and have lived here for multiple years. Make sure to check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-4-let-us-know-if-you-ve-earned-a-no-claims-bonus-on-another-car\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Let us know if you\u2019ve earned a no claims bonus on another car<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you haven\u2019t had to make a claim over the last year (or longer), you\u2019ve probably built up a no claims bonus (NCB). This is one of the best ways to lower your insurance premium. But what happens when you\u2019re using your NCB on a private vehicle? Unfortunately, your NCB can only be applied to one policy, so you might find that you don\u2019t feel the benefits of your claims-free driving when you take out a taxi insurance policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thankfully, we work a little differently. If you\u2019ve built up an NCB on a separate vehicle, let us know when you get a quote. We can often \u2018mirror\u2019 the NCB you\u2019ve built up on a private policy so you can use it on your taxi insurance policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-5-make-sure-you-get-the-right-cover\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.

Make sure you know which type of cover you need for the type of work you do so you remain covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Public hire taxi insurance<\/strong> is for taxis that can pick up passengers without a booking. This includes black cabs and other hackney carriages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Private hire taxi insurance<\/strong> is for taxis that have to be pre-booked. This can include those driven for Uber and Bolt, or minicabs.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"container\" data-elementor-id=\"1518\" class=\"elementor elementor-1518\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-441ac3d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"441ac3d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a1d43fc elementor-widget__width-initial callback-script elementor-widget-tablet__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"a1d43fc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<instant-callback-element department=\"STERLING\" context=\"CALLBACK-WIDGET\" handler=\"sterling-web-instant\" telephone=\"STERLING-EXISTING\" referer_internal=\"\" referer_external=\"\" callback_label=\"STERLING-EXISTING\" callback_placeholder=\"\" button_icon=\"fa-regular fa-chevron-right\" id=\"callback-heading\">\r\n    <div style=\"flex-basis: 100%\"><\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"telephone-widget-container\">\r\n        <span>Existing customers please call <\/span>\r\n        <telephone-element department=\"STERLING\" telephone=\"STERLING-EXISTING\"><\/telephone-element>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/instant-callback-element>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n    s = document.createElement(\"style\");\r\n    s.innerHTML = '\/* CSS is located in Advanced > Custom CSS *\/';\r\n    document.getElementsByTagName(\"head\")[0].append(s);\r\n<\/script>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-217487b elementor-widget__width-initial callback-script elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"217487b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<instant-callback-element department=\"STERLING\" context=\"CALLBACK-WIDGET\" handler=\"sterling-web-instant\" telephone=\"STERLING-EXISTING\" referer_internal=\"\" referer_external=\"\" callback_label=\"STERLING-EXISTING\" callback_placeholder=\"\" button_icon=\"fa-regular fa-chevron-right\" id=\"callback-form\">\r\n    <div style=\"flex-basis: 100%\"><\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"telephone-widget-container\">\r\n        <span>Existing customers please call <\/span>\r\n        <telephone-element department=\"STERLING\" telephone=\"STERLING-EXISTING\"><\/telephone-element>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/instant-callback-element>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n    s = document.createElement(\"style\");\r\n    s.innerHTML = '\/* CSS is located in Advanced > Custom CSS *\/';\r\n    document.getElementsByTagName(\"head\")[0].append(s);\r\n<\/script>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-6-compare-different-levels-of-cover\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Compare different levels of cover<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People wanting to reduce their insurance premiums will often choose to take out third party only (TPO) cover, which is the minimum level of insurance required to drive on public roads in the UK. But did you know that other, more comprehensive options could save you money?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In some cases, you might find that comprehensive or third party, fire and theft (TPFT) cover can work out less expensive. Those who take out TPO insurance are statistically more likely to make a claim on their insurance than those who take out a higher level of cover. So make sure to get quotes for all the different cover levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you do need to make a claim, a comprehensive policy will also help cover the costs of repairing your own vehicle. This could save you from paying out of pocket for repairs and help you get back to earning a living sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-7-increase-your-voluntary-excess-but-only-if-you-can-afford-it\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Increase your voluntary excess, but only if you can afford it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-4-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Cars and taxis driving down the road\" class=\"wp-image-1577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-4-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-4.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you take out an insurance policy, there\u2019ll be two types of excess: compulsory and voluntary excess. These two excess types make up the total amount you would have to pay towards any claim you make on your insurance. Your insurance company will then pay the rest of the claim up to any policy limit you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whilst the compulsory excess is set by the insurance provider and cannot be changed, you can choose the voluntary excess yourself. As a general rule, increasing the voluntary excess can help lower your premium, so consider this if you\u2019re looking to cut the cost of your taxi insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That being said, be careful if you decide to do this. You <strong>WILL<\/strong> need to pay this and the compulsory excess towards any claims you make, so you must ensure you can afford to if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-8-think-twice-about-adding-named-drivers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Think twice about adding named drivers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whilst adding named drivers to a private car insurance policy can often reduce your insurance premium, the opposite is usually true for taxi insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you share your taxi with another <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk\/blog\/car\/taxi-survey-uk\/\">taxi driver<\/a>, then you still might want to consider taking out an any driver policy, but if you don\u2019t, it\u2019s usually best to remain the only driver on your policy. This is because hire and reward cover works differently from regular motor insurance; if your insurer thinks the vehicle will be used around the clock, this increases the risk that it will be involved in an accident or breakdown, which can increase your premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-9-pay-annually-if-you-can\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Pay annually if you can<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did you know that paying upfront on your policy tends to work out cheaper than paying monthly? This is because monthly payments usually include interest and\/or fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if you can afford it, consider paying for your taxi insurance yearly. It may set you back more initially, but it will actually cost you less in the long run<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-10-fit-extra-security-devices\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Fit extra security devices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the best ways you can save money on your taxi insurance is by fitting extra Thatcham-approved security devices to your vehicle. This includes alarms and immobilisers, both of which help reduce the likelihood that your taxi will be stolen. And if your vehicle is stolen, a tracker can help recover it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-11-keep-your-taxi-in-a-safe-place-overnight\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Keep your taxi in a safe place overnight<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-3-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Car parked in an underground garage\" class=\"wp-image-1574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-3-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-3-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/save-money-taxi-insurance-3.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have an enclosed garage or driveway to park your taxi at night, your premium will usually be more affordable than if you park it on a public road. This is because the first two options can reduce the risk of your vehicle getting stolen, which means you\u2019ll likely need to pay less to insure it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-12-tell-us-if-this-is-a-second-vehicle\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Tell us if this is a second vehicle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking to insure multiple vehicles at once? We can cover most types of vehicles, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sterling-insurance.co.uk\/car-insurance\/\">private cars<\/a>. What\u2019s more, taking out cover with us for two or more cars can get you a substantial discount compared to insuring them separately.
