What is long-term van hire?
Long-term van hire allows businesses to hire a van for an extended period, typically from one month upwards, without committing to a traditional multi-year lease. It offers a practical alternative to van leasing for companies that need flexibility with predictable monthly costs.
How long can I hire a van for on a long-term basis?
The minimum hire period is one month. Discounts are available when committing to longer terms such as 3, 6, 9, or 12 months. Vans can usually remain on hire until they reach three years old, avoiding unnecessary vehicle changes.
How does long-term van hire differ from van leasing?
Long-term van hire is more flexible than van leasing, with shorter commitments and simpler off-hire options. Leasing typically involves fixed contracts over several years, while long-term hire is better suited to businesses with changing workloads or temporary requirements.
Is long-term van hire the same as a van subscription?
Long-term van hire often uses the same fleet as van subscriptions but is structured as a hire solution. Van subscriptions may offer greater flexibility for high-mileage or courier use, while long-term hire suits businesses looking for a more traditional rental-style arrangement.

Are courier and logistics companies suitable for long-term van hire?
Courier and logistics companies may be better suited to van subscription solutions due to higher mileage and heavier use. Long-term van hire is typically more appropriate for controlled usage and standard business operations.
What costs are included with long-term van hire?
Most long-term van hire agreements include maintenance and servicing on the majority of vehicles, road tax, and breakdown assistance. This helps businesses manage operating costs more easily compared to owning or leasing vans.
Is insurance included with long-term van hire?
Insurance is not included. The hirer must provide fully comprehensive insurance or a suitable fleet policy that meets UK requirements for the duration of the hire.
What mileage allowances are available on long-term van hire?
Generous mileage allowances are available. While unlimited mileage is not offered, tailored quotes can be provided for higher usage, including allowances of up to 6,000 miles per month depending on requirements.
