When it comes to moving and storing perishable goods, a reliable, efficient and cost-effective refrigerated fleet is a vital cog in your business operations. In this post, we’ll explore why renting your refrigerated fleet is the best choice for businesses, especially those that need flexibility, low maintenance costs and fewer long-term commitments.
Benefits of renting a refrigerated fleet
Lower upfront costs
Purchasing your fleet of refrigerated vehicles can be a massive financial burden, particularly for SME’s or start ups. Renting your fleet eliminates the need for large capital expenditure, allowing you to conserve cash flow and invest in other areas of your operations. By renting, you pay for what you want, when you need it!
Flexibility to scale up or down
Whether it’s preparing for a summer of festivals, spikes in seasonal product demand, changes within the market or unforeseen events, renting offers the flexibility to scale your refrigerated fleet based on demand. Adjust your fleet without the long-term commitment of owning multiple refrigerated vehicles.
Maintenance and repairs, covered
Owning your refrigerated fleet means added responsibility for maintaining and servicing your vehicles. This could potentially bring costly repairs and vehicle downtime, which in time, could result in loss of sales and customer satisfaction. Renting allows you to avoid the hassle of these unexpected costs, providing you peace of mind to focus on running your business instead of worrying about the upkeep of your fleet.
Access to the latest technology and vehicles
Renting your refrigerated fleet allows you access to a large variety of vehicles. From latest models and technology to cost effective options, all without the financial strain of purchasing and upgrading your fleet.
No long term commitment or risk
Buying a refrigerated fleet ties you to a significant investment. The commitment can be risky if market conditions change, or if your business needs evolve. Renting removes that risk, allowing your business to stay flexible and avoid long term financial commitments. Scale up or down depending on demand on a term that suits you.
Enhanced focus on core business operations
By choosing to rent your refrigerated fleet you can focus on your business operations, rather than worrying about your vehicles and the additional costs that come with them. From insurance and tax to maintenance and servicing, owning a fleet requires constant attention. Renting, shifts the responsibility to us, allowing you to focus on what matters most, growing your business and serving your customers.
