Top 3 reasons to rent a car or van for business

In addition to private individuals, we also serve the business target group. Companies have various reasons to rent a car or bus. What follows are the top 3 reasons why business customers rent a car or bus from us.

1. Company outing or course

Great: the annual team or company outing is just around the corner! But, uhm: how do we get there?! Instead of taxi transport, you can of course also 'simply' rent one or more cars or minibuses yourself as a company. There is bound to be someone who wants to sit behind the wheel. This way you save on your budget and have money left for more fun things!

Also useful if one or more employees have to attend a course somewhere in the country.

2. Temporary transportation needs

Your company is dealing with a peak period, for example due to an unexpected large order or seasonal rush. Whatever the case: your own fleet of vehicles does not meet your transport needs. Then car rental offers a solution.

If your company has a long-term or structural need for transport, short-term leasing or purchasing a company car or bus yourself may be more advantageous.

3. Delivery time of new commercial vehicle

A very specific reason – which we would therefore like to mention separately – why you as a company need temporary transport is the delivery time of a new company car.

The old company car or bus has given up the ghost after years of loyal service. Or a new field service employee has recently been hired who needs his own transportation. In short: high time for a new car or bus.

However, the chosen model is not in stock and must be ordered. Did you know that, depending on the model, the delivery time can vary from 3 to 6 months or longer?! Even if the desired model is available, it often takes a few days or a week to make it ready to drive. During that time, your (new) employee will of course need 'normal' transportation.

Car rental or short lease offers a solution to bridge the delivery time. If you need a car or bus for a month or longer, short lease is more advantageous. You then rent for a longer period at an extra advantageous daily rate. Is the new car unexpectedly delivered earlier? No problem: with short lease you can cancel per day.

Incidental transport needs

In addition to temporary transport, which relates to a continuous period, we also distinguish the need for incidental transport. Many companies, but also self-employed persons, need a (representative) car every now and then.

If you only need a car occasionally, for example a few times a month, it is quickly cheaper to rent a car (or bus) than to buy a company car yourself. In our representative rental cars you will always look good, everywhere!
