Welfare Van Leasing

Welfare Van Leasing

Leasing or Contract Hire? Quite often these terms are interchanged but in reality they are different types of agreement. The main difference is a risk, with Contract Hire there is a fixed term for ‘hiring’ the vehicle with agreed monthly payments, at the end it is returned to the ‘lessor’, with no risk to the ‘lessee’.

With a lease, the ‘lessee’ assumes the risk of the vehicle, so if it is worth less at the end of the period they are liable, if it is worth more they may profit.

For the benefit of this blog when talking about Welfare Van Leasing we will be in fact talking about Contract Hire.

Welfare Van – An Overview

Firstly, before we talk about Welfare Van Leasing, what is a Welfare Van? Also known as a Mess Van, Welfare Unit or Crew Van, a Welfare Van is the ultimate mobile office or incident room. With seating for 7, hot and cold water, a separate toilet with sink, heating and lighting, dining table and desk with USB and three-pin charging and built-in microwave and storage.

Welfare Vans are ideally suited to Construction, Events, Railway and Civil Engineering, Incident Rooms and more. When a Portacabin is too big and lacks mobility, a Welfare Van can be the ideal solution.

Benefits of Welfare Van Leasing

At Van World we offer Contract Hire agreements from 6 months to 5 years on a range of Welfare Vans. The main benefits for our customers include:

  • Flexibility – the opportunity to upgrade the vehicle before the end of the contract should the need arise.
  • Tax Deductible – VAT and costs can both be claimed and/or offset, reducing your company tax bill.
  • No Depreciation Risk – vehicle prices can be volatile and are impacted by many variables. Contract Hire mitigates any depreciation by having fixed monthly costs.
