THE rental business Europcar has launched a new fixed price long-term van rental solution for SMEs. Europcar says the rental price won’t change even if servicing and maintenance costs do.
Part of Europcar’s Long-Term Van Hire Solutions, the new contract includes all costs, including maintenance and servicing.
SME businesses can sign up for one or two years with a rate fixed for the period regardless of any additional costs for servicing or maintenance. The price can also be capped for a third year.
“The new solution aims to provide the flexibility of rental without any variables in the cost. Many businesses are telling us that they like the flexibility of rental for one, two and even three years, rather than committing to outright purchase or other less flexible lease-style solutions. However, when looking at a rental solution they also require certainty over costs.”
The new contract can be applied to any of the van fleet including short and long wheel base, Chapter 8 (traffic management) vehicles, crew cabs and specialist bodied vehicles.
It also provides the option for variable mileage requirements and includes free delivery and collection to business or home addresses.
Businesses that opt for the new long-term van rental option must commit to a minimum of 12 months and will only be subject to a pre-advised fee if they return the vehicle early during the chosen second or third year. All vehicles are subject to agreed wear and tear rules.
