How does taxi fleet insurance work?

Running a taxi business requires keeping your fleet on the road, and it can be a challenging task when renewing individual policies for all the vehicles in your fleet. Taxi fleet insurance simplifies this process. With Acorn’s fleet taxi cover, you only take out one insurance policy for the whole fleet. This policy covers all the taxis in your fleet, saving you the hassle when it comes to renewing your policy.
