Perhaps the most frequently asked question for us as a business, is how do you make the choice between taking a lease or renting a van. What are the significant benefits of taking a lease compared with a standard rental agreement?
The answer is quite simple. When you take out a lease on a van you can choose which one to have from the wide range of makes and models that are familiar to you. You can choose what colour it will be, what options you want and what size and specification you require. You are spreading your monthly payments as a customer, over a set term – as a result, your monthly payments will be considerably lower than a rental agreement. This is because the finance company knows how much money they will be earning from customers because of the commitment the customer has made.
Because of the turnover of vehicles, we can get very competitive prices and pass these straight to our customers. This results in lower start up costs, which help improve the customer’s cash flow. The customer has the option as well to own or sell the van at the end of the cheap van leasing deal.
There is the added bonus of being able to sign write your vehicle with your own company logo and add other extras such as roof racks and interior racking.
Alternatively, with rental agreements, you pay your monthly cost and at the end of the agreement have nothing to take with you. For me, it is the worst of all of the options on show, and has the least value for any business.
