Private Hire Vehicle Insurance: What You Need Before Collecting a Car

Before collecting your rental vehicle, you’ll need to secure your own private hire insurance. Here’s what that involves:

1. Choose the Right Policy Type: You’ll need PHV-specific cover (not standard car insurance), which usually includes:

  • Third party

  • Comprehensive

  • Hire & reward use

2. Get a Weekly or Monthly Plan: Most rental drivers prefer short-term policies they can renew as needed.

3. Provide Proof Before Handover: We must see your insurance certificate before you collect any SJ Rentals vehicle.
