Our standard cover

When you hire a fleet of vehicles from Arrow Self Drive we can offer insurance for up to 28 days. Rentals for longer than 28 days must be organised using your companies’ own insurance policy.

Our standard insurance policy covers you the hirer, any passengers and your hired vehicle in the unfortunate case of an accident. The hirer of the vehicle is responsible for the insurance excess.

Please ensure that you understand all the policy features and charges that you may be liable for so that you can make an informed decision about whether you are happy with our insurance or whether you want to put additional policies in place. We require a deposit for each vehicle hired which we process on a credit card; monies are not withdrawn unless damage is incurred. Learn more on our Deposits Guide.

The standard excess is £1,000. We reserve the right to increase the excess with each incident. Cover would default if the necessary security precautions were not implemented.
