Frequently Asked Questions On Van Leasing in London
What Vans Are Available To Lease?
Why Should I Lease A Van Rather Than Buy One?
Is Van Leasing Cheaper Than Buying A New Van Outright Or Taking Out a Bank Loan?
Van leasing is typically more cost-effective than buying a new van outright or taking out a bank loan, due to the lower monthly payments, lower upfront costs, and sometimes, tax advantages for businesses.
Leasing may not result in ownership; however, it does provide predictable monthly costs, whilst eliminating the burden of depreciation and resale.
For VAT-registered businesses, the monthly lease payments can often be claimed back as a tax-deductible business expense, too, further adding to the financial benefits of leasing.
What Are The Main Benefits Of Van Leasing?
The main benefits of choosing van leasing include:
- Lower Upfront Costs: Leasing requires a significantly smaller initial payment compared to purchasing, allowing the remaining capital to be reassigned to other business needs.
- Predictable Monthly Payments: Fixed monthly payments make budgeting and planning your finances much easier.
- No depreciation worries: You won’t be responsible for the van’s depreciation over time, as the vehicle is returned at the end of the lease.
- Potential Tax Benefits: Lease payments are often tax-deductible as a business expense.
- Flexibility: Simply return the van at the end of the lease, and have the option to lease a new one or try a different model.
- Wide Selection: Leasing provides access to a diverse range of van sizes and brands.
What Is Depreciation, And How Does Leasing Protect Me From It?
Depreciation refers to the decrease in a car’s value over time. This is the single biggest cost of vehicle ownership.
The difference between the price you originally paid for the van and the amount you can get when you sell it or trade it in at a later date.
A new van will lose value immediately; therefore, choosing leasing will protect you from the risk and burden of this value loss, as it is transferred to the leasing company, and you will never own the vehicle.
Will I Need To Undergo a Credit Check To Lease a Van?
Yes, you will need to complete a credit check to lease a van. This is a standard procedure to assess your past and present financial situation.
If I Live In a London Borough, Can I Register The Leased Van For a Residential Parking Permit?
Can I Lease Multiple Vans For A Fleet?
Yes, you can! We’ll be more than happy to help you choose the right vehicles to lease for a fleet.
Can New Businesses And Start-Ups Lease A Van?
Yes, new businesses and start-ups can lease a van. Leasing offers many benefits to start-ups, including access to new models and fixed monthly expenses. As your business grows, you can change your vehicle fleet to suit, swapping to a larger van if needed or adding an extra van to your lease. You’ll also be able to choose a monthly cost that suits your budget, and plan to have that expense for a set period of time as agreed with your leasing provider, as opposed to the high up-front cost of buying a van.
Can I Lease A Van If I’m Self-Employed Or A Sole Trader?
Absolutely, van leasing is an excellent choice for the self-employed and sole traders.
How Long Is The Typical Van Leasing Contract?
A typical van leasing contract is between two and five years long, with two, three, and four-year contracts being the most common. Some shorter options may be available, should you require greater flexibility.
Do You Provide Lease Contracts For Couriers?
Can I Put Company Decals On My Van?
Company decals can be applied to vehicles under a finance lease and hire purchase finance, as you will own the van at the end of the lease period.
If you wish to add company decals to a van which is under a contract hire lease, you must ensure that the company decals are removed at the end of the lease. Failure to remove these decals will result in an additional charge.
When Will My Monthly Payments Start?
Can I Lease A Van If I Am Not VAT Registered?
Can I Lease A Van If I Am Self-Employed?
What Are The Upfront Costs Of Van Leasing?
Can I Modify My Leased Van?
If you are looking for a van under a finance lease or hire purchase finance, you can add any modifications as you wish, as you will own the van at the end of the lease period.
If you wish to modify a van which is under a contract hire lease, you must ensure the modifications are removed at the end of the lease. Failure to remove these modifications will result in an additional charge.
What Is An Initial Rental Or Upfront Payment, And How Is It Calculated?
An initial payment, also referred to as the upfront payment, is a lump sum paid at the start of a lease agreement to reduce the total cost and lower the monthly payment.
Therefore, the larger the initial payment, the lower your subsequent monthly payments will be.
What Is ‘Mileage Allowance’ And Why Is It Important?
A mileage allowance is the maximum number of miles that you can drive per year on a leased vehicle. This figure will be agreed upon when you sign your lease contract. This allowance is key in determining your monthly payments, as the more miles driven, the greater the vehicle’s depreciation.
If you exceed the agreed mileage, you will be charged an excess mileage fee.
What Happens If I Exceed My Mileage Allowance?
If you exceed the stated mileage as agreed in your lease contract, you may face excess mileage charges. It’s best to overestimate your mileage.
If you have predicted that your mileage is going to change, let us know as soon as possible.
How Do I Know If a Leased Van Is ULEZ Compliant for Driving in Central London?
What Vans Are Best For Businesses Which Primarily Operate Within The M25/ Central London?
What Is Considered ‘Acceptable Wear and Tear’ At The End Of The Lease, and Will I Be Charged For Damage?
Fair wear and tear will cover the natural deterioration that occurs to your van over time, due to normal daily use. Damage, on the other hand, occurs as a result of a specific event, neglect or misuse. Any signs of excessive damage, extending beyond normal wear and tear, will incur a cost.
What Are My Options At The End Of The Van Lease?
At the end of your van lease, you will return the vehicle.
Can I Extend My Van Lease When The Contract Ends?
While you cannot renew the same lease, you can upgrade, much like you would with your mobile phone.
Simply browse the various models we have available and get in touch so we can provide you with a new lease and an updated van – it’s as simple as that.
