New to the idea of leasing a van? Or simply want to learn more about the process? This blog has you covered.

What Is Van Leasing?

Put simply, when leasing a van you pay fixed monthly payments and typically return the vehicle at the end of the term agreed, or purchase it outright. There are a number of leasing finance options available to suit your individual or company needs. At Van Sales UK, whether it’s new van leasing deals or you want a cash purchase, we have you covered. We deliver vans direct to your door thanks to our simple order process.

Why Lease A Van

There are many reasons why leasing a van is a good idea. First and foremost you aren’t committing yourself by leasing it for a set period of time. When taking a lease agreement out on a van, the customer will have fixed costs over an agreed leasing period, making the finances more manageable. As well as this, there may be flexibility to upgrade early, as well as lower maintenance and repair costs.

Van Finance Options

Though there are many van finance options available at Van Sales UK, the popular leasing types are:

Finance Lease

Finance Leases are a flexible option with no mileage limits or damage recharges. This asset is shown on your company balance sheet and is a VAT-beneficial option. You can pay the entire van cost over the agreed lease period, plus interest charges., or you can pay lower monthly rentals during the lease period with the addition of a final balloon payment.

Contract Hire

A simple way to fund vans, contracts range from 24 to 60 months and are tailored to your personal requirements. You have no risk of residual values at the end as you hand the van back, with optional maintenance and recovery included in the monthly rental. This eliminates most of the stress and financial risks of van ownership.

Hire Purchase

A great finance option for ownership, available for both private individuals and businesses, when all payments have been made you will take ownership of the vehicle with this leasing option. Usually, the full cost of the vehicle will be financed. However, part of the cost can be deferred to a balloon payment.

With finance rates at an all-time low, there are plenty of cheap finance deals available, with  Finance lease, contract hire, and hire purchase options all advisable. Contact our team to discuss this finance option and take advantage of our cheap van finance deals.

"Found these guys online and was a little bit wary to buy a new van from someone I hadn't heard of. From the off, the first phone call was professional and gave me all the information that I needed, Theo was great, helpful and I proceeded to order my new van, Paige sorted the paperwork quickly and efficiently and within 10 days I had my new van delivered! The price was very competitive and all parts of the transaction were easy and hassle free, wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys, Thank you so much for a really good experience."

"I was looking for a good deal on a van online and then came across Van away, at first I was a bit sceptical but later went ahead and bought a Peugeot boxer on an unbeatable price online. The sell team were fantastic all the way and very helpful to say the least. I will highly recommend Van away to anybody that's looking for a van of any kind. Thanks Van Away for your first class service and I will be looking forward to a future deal."

"Just purchased a 2nd van through Vanaways to add to our company fleet. Steve Catley was helpful, communicative and informative all the way through the process. We would definitely use Vanaways again, and would not hesitate to recommend them."

"Paige was outstanding in her responsiveness to what presented as a serious problem for our company. The finance company used by her company caused unnecessary and significant delays in the delivery of our van - the pain of which was mitigated somewhat by Paige's proactive communication, informative and realistic communication and very professional demeanour. I'd recommend her and she meant our view of Vanaways was overall positive."
