Hire Services
At VLS we work closely with each customer in tailoring each lease agreement to suit the customer’s requirement. For long term hire of vehicles the most popular lease agreements are operating lease (also known as contract hire) and finance lease. Short term hire, which is usually from one day to several months, is also an operating lease but without a long term contractual commitment.
If you already own a fleet we can buy it from you and then lease it back by any of the hire methods described above.
VLS frequently supplies vehicles to customers that have been significantly modified to suit the client’s requirements. For light vans this often includes fitting out with racking, addition of livery, warning beacons, racks for ladders, etc., alternatively it could be conversion into a minibus suitable for disabled passengers. For large goods vehicles it could be the addition of an access tower to allow overhead electricity lines to be inspected. This service differentiates VLS from most other leasing businesses. For more information, see Vehicle Specification.

Short Term Hire
VLS provides a short term hire service to its fleet customers as an additional value added service to its main leasing business. Customer demand is satisfied through a combination of VLS owned vehicles with additional vehicles hired from third parties as required, using our low discounted rates through contracts with national hire companies.
