Flexible delivery insurance made for Deliveroo drivers

Food Delivery insurance provides protection for drivers who transport deliveries of food and parcels in return for payment. This is also known as Hire & Reward. Bookings are typically made by phone, text, or mobile app, and deliveries may be made using a car, scooter, or a courier van. Many delivery drivers provide this service part time to generate extra money, while some may do it full time as their main source of income.

Food Delivery insurance specifically covers drivers who deliver food or parcels for a living. Standard motor insurance does not cover this type of activity. Depending on the level of cover purchased, Food Delivery insurance can insure the driver, their vehicle, and third-party persons and property.

Zego’s Food Delivery insurance can protect drivers when they transport food and parcels or use their vehicle for social and domestic purposes. Drivers may also purchase fully comprehensive or third-party protection – check our delivery driver car insurance , insurance for Scooters or courier van insurance options to find out more.
