What state?

Try Main Street America. They write black car in NYC.

We write taxi insurance in 48 states. Go to transitrisks.com and contact them.

If you do not have direct access and know the market its a waste of time to try and write though a GA. Often they dont have the competitive markets. Other will give you a sky high quote that you cant sell and the following year they market your account with a lower rate that they could have given you in the previous year. Your best bet is to find a local Broker and build a relationship with them. Build a book and try and get your own appointments down the line.

You can try piconline or dcapinsurance. The former provide limits up to $5M and has $20M excess market capability and you can even fill out a request form for quotes so as to give you an idea how much it would cost you when signing up for this type of insurance.

Does anyone know where I can get taxi insurance? I am in the State of Alaska in a small community and need 300,000 liability. I have 1 cab and no drivers besides myself. This is a requirement for a city permit. Thanks
