Do We Need More Vans On Our Roads?
It will be National Van week soon.Quite what this entails I’m not sure it seems to be a wonderful excuse for van manufacturers to advertise their new models and attract lots of new customers. For some people, driving a van is an essential part of everyday life. Many businesses rely on using them daily to transport staff and goods, and there is no question of their usefulness.
In these difficult times many people with small businesses rely on their van for transport or even as their portable office. Buying is an option, but far more predictable, reliable and certainly less costly is looking at available van leasing deals. You’ll get a modern van without having to worry about paying upfront, and get the chance to trade it in for the latest new model every three years.
The problem is that even if it’s a brand new, environmentally friendly van they can still cause problems on the roads. Many would say it’s not unusual to find one blocking the road and that they cause problems when left parked on small streets or in residential areas. What those people are forgetting is how many of the services they use and rely on every day depend on a man in a van.For those who need to use a van in their day to day business life it’s hard to imagine how they’d be able to cope without it.
But for businesses that need to use vans the cost of upkeep and servicing can be a real financial worry.The reason most businesses with a small fleet of vans require drivers to take them home is that the cost of hiring somewhere to store them all would be too high. A far more viable option for these businesses would be to look at van lease contracts if manageable monthly payments and always having the latest model wasn’t enough, many deals come with tax and servicing cost thrown in as well.
