What is courier fleet insurance?
Courier fleet insurance covers two or more vehicles used for paid delivery work, also known as hire and reward, under one policy, with a single renewal instead of managing separate courier policies.
“Each vehicle in a courier fleet still needs hire and reward cover, fleet insurance brings that cover together under one policy, not around it.”
The right courier fleet depends on:
How many delivery vehicles you runA mix of vans and carsNamed or any driver optionsHow your fleet is likely to growThe value of the goods you carryYour preferred renewal structure
Courier fleet cover for the way you deliver
Courier fleet cover for the way you deliver
Different delivery operations carry different risks. Your routes, load types and contracts can all shape the right policy.

Parcel Delivery
Multi-drop rounds for parcels and packages.
Food Delivery
Restaurant and takeaway delivery services.
Same-Day Courier
Urgent, point-to-point delivery work.
Contract Courier
Work for a delivery platform or logistics client.
Freight & Pallet
Larger goods and pallet-based deliveries.
Multi-Vehicle
Delivery operations running several vehicles.
Not quite a courier fleet?
If you run one or two courier vehicles, a courier van or courier car policy may suit you better than fleet cover.
What’s your delivery pattern?
Insurers rate courier fleets by how the vehicles are used: multi-drop parcel rounds, same-day work, food delivery or a mix. Telling us your pattern helps get the right vehicle and driver terms.
Courier fleet cover can reflect how your routes actually work.

Which fleet policy is right for you?
Every fleet policy shares the basics, one renewal, one point of contact, but the right fit depends on your vehicles and licensing.

What affects the cost of courier fleet insurance?
Courier fleet insurance has no fixed price. It depends on the number and type of vehicles, your drivers and their ages, annual mileage, the goods you carry, overnight security and your claims record.
Number of vehicles
More delivery vehicles on the policy can affect the overall cost.
Goods in transit limit
The value of the goods you carry sets your transit limit, which affects the overall premium.
Number of drivers
Named-driver or any-driver arrangements can affect your premium differently.
Level of excess
Choosing a higher voluntary excess could reduce your premium.
Type of delivery work
Multi-drop, single-drop or contract courier work can carry different risk levels.
Claims history
Your fleet’s previous claims history can affect the cost of your policy.
