SOUTHAMPTON, UK. June 16th, 2026 – Bluedrop Services has unveiled a new short-term taxi insurance policy created for self-employed taxi and private hire drivers who want greater flexibility and lower insurance costs. The launch expands the company’s range of transport insurance products and reflects changing work patterns across the industry.
The new insurance solution builds on the firm’s established Fleet Insurance offering, which currently covers businesses operating anywhere from two to more than 1,000 vehicles. Individual drivers can now benefit from the same expertise through a dedicated short-term policy.
Cover is available in 28-day periods and can be extended quickly when needed. The policy also provides protection for taxi driving, food delivery work, and personal use under a single insurance arrangement.
Bluedrop Services developed the product after seeing growing demand from drivers who require insurance that can adapt to flexible and varied working schedules.
With average savings of more than 54% compared with conventional annual taxi insurance policies, the cover offers a practical solution for part-time drivers, seasonal workers, temporary users, and those exploring work opportunities with ride-hailing and delivery services.
The company currently supports drivers and operators working with platforms including Uber, FREENOW, Bolt, Ola Cabs, and Autocab, alongside food delivery services such as Uber Eats, Bolt Food, Just Eat, and Deliveroo.
Doug Kelley, Managing Director of Bluedrop Services, said: “Today’s drivers need insurance that works around their lives, not the other way around. Whether someone is driving full-time, part-time, switching platforms, or combining taxi work with food delivery, our new short-term insurance product offers the flexibility and affordability they’ve been asking for. We’re proud to help drivers get on the road quickly, with cover they can trust and savings that make a real difference.
“Our team understands the fast-moving transport industry and the pressures drivers face. We encourage anyone looking for flexible temporary taxi insurance to contact us today for a quick and competitive quote.”
