Minibus Insurance

Coversure Macclesfield has been insuring minibuses on a regular basis since 2000.
We have a good number of insurance companies to place the risk with such as Norwich Union, QBE, Jubilee and various others.
We will cover a vehicle from 7 seats including MPV’s, 9 seaters to 17 seaters to coaches, all are no problem.
We can cover all types of uses from social domestic and pleasure puroposes, charity use, hire and reward (taxi), school use, sports clubs. Again there is not much we cannot place.

Most institutions operate their minibuses under a s19 Permit operated by the local Traffic Commissioner. This scheme is provided for by s19 of the Transport Act 1985 and allows non-profit-making organisations, such as schools, to provide transport for hire or reward without the need to obtain a Public Service Vehicle (PSV) Operator's licence. The minibus must only be used to transport a specific and defined group of people, such as the members of a school or a sports club.
Section 22 permits issued under the 1985 Transport Act are granted for non-profit groups that use unpaid volunteer drivers, to enable them to operate registered bus services for the public, using a minibus.
For the best advice on how to insure your bus, and the correct licences needed we would ask that you give us a call and we will be more than happy to explain everything to you.
