Why hire a van as a small business?
For small business owners, efficiency and flexibility are essential elements in order to see effective growth. Hiring the correct vehicle to meet demand will help build your customer base, provide excellent service and increase productivity.
Whether you require an additional van for a short-term project or want to upgrade to a larger vehicle for a special delivery, hiring a van is the solution to your immediate needs. Please note that Caversham Vehicle Hire cannot supply vans for couriers due to our insurance. However, we are pleased to offer our services to support local Berkshire businesses.
Hiring a van for your business has many benefits, including:
1. Flexibility
Get the van you need when you need it. Hiring a van means you always have access to the right van for your job. You can even choose between a range of models and sizes. At Caversham, our fleet ranges from Vauxhall Combos to Peugeot Boxer to Luton Box vans.
Light vans are ideal for moving around a small load, such as picking up some new office equipment or transporting supplies for an event. Alternatively, if you are looking to move large quantities of stock or sizeable items, a large van or tipper truck may be more suited to your needs.
By hiring a van, you can pick the best model for each job, saving you time and money. All of our van specifications are listed on our website, so you can be sure to choose the best fit for your project.
During peak seasons or periods of increased demand, your business may need to temporarily expand its fleet to meet customer needs. Short-term, long-term or weekend hire options allow you to slot your van hire perfectly into your plans.
2. Cost
For many small businesses, purchasing a van upfront can consume a considerable portion of your expenses. Hiring a van is much cheaper than paying the upfront costs of buying your own, saving you significant money.
It is not only the upfront costs you will save on. Additional costs such as MOTs, insurance, and renting parking spaces can also be cut from your budget. Saving on initial and ongoing costs will allow you to allocate that money to other business growth areas.
3. Avoid Maintenance Costs
Remove depreciation as accountants will take into account depreciation and there is tax relief on it
Maintaining your own fleet of vehicles can be costly and time-consuming. Buying a vehicle means you will have to pay for any necessary repairs and maintenance. Hiring a van avoids these potentially expensive bills.
Rental vans are usually modern and smart, with up-to-date technology and engineering. You can make the most of the latest features each time you book a hire vehicle.
With Caversham Vehicle Hire, you can be assured that every one of our vehicles is serviced and maintained to the highest standards, giving you peace of mind throughout your journey. You can also be sure that your vehicle will meet the required safety standards without having to undertake extensive checks yourself.
