Specialist Taxi Replacement Vehicles

PurpleSquare Hire provides specialist taxi replacement vehicles for drivers who cannot afford to be off the road. We understand that every day without a vehicle is a day without income, and we deliver fast.

Why taxi drivers need specialist replacements

A taxi isn’t just transport - it’s your livelihood. A standard saloon won’t cut it for licensed work, and most high-street hire desks can’t provide a plated vehicle. We can. We hold a specialist fleet of licensed taxis, including wheelchair-accessible vehicles, ready to deploy nationwide.

Vehicle types available

  • Licensed hackney and private hire vehicles.
  • Wheelchair-accessible taxis.
  • Executive saloons for chauffeur work.

How it works after a non-fault accident

  1. Call us straight away - even before you’ve sorted recovery.
  2. We confirm liability and arrange a like-for-like licensed replacement.
  3. We deliver the vehicle to you and manage the credit hire claim.
  4. You stay earning. We chase the at-fault insurer.

Speed of delivery

Same-day delivery in most areas. Our team understands that for a taxi driver, a 24-hour delay costs real money. We move at your pace.

Frequently asked questions

Can you provide a plated taxi as a replacement?

Yes. We hold a specialist fleet of licensed taxis including hackney, private hire, and wheelchair-accessible vehicles.

How fast can you deliver?

Same day in most areas after a non-fault accident - call us first and we will start the moment you’re off the line.

Do I have to pay anything?

Not when liability is clear. We supply the vehicle under a credit hire agreement and recover the costs from the at-fault insurer.

Will the replacement be insured for taxi work?

Yes. The replacement comes appropriately insured and licensed for hire and reward use where applicable.

What if my licence area is restricted?

Tell us your licensing authority and vehicle requirement and we will source a vehicle that complies.
