Expert Fleet Management For Manufacturing, Installation And Trades-Based Businesses
For businesses with a fleet, downtime just isn’t an option. A fleet management company can help improve productivity and reduce costs. Whether you need manufacturing fleet management or tradie fleet management, we provide solutions to help increase performance and profitability, without the stress.
Fleet Management When You Need It
If you own a manufacturing, installation or trades-based business, you know the challenges that come with handling a fleet. On top of staff and clients, you might also get those big one-off jobs that need an extra vehicle. Or you need to fill the gap while your regular fleet is off the road. The last thing you need is a project getting held up by not having the right vehicle on hand to get the job done smoothly. It’s a headache and stress that can be avoided.
Reliable Manufacturing Fleet Management And Tradie Fleet Management
Our fleet management solutions provide a flexible, easy way to keep your business moving. It’s for companies that work across multiple sites and projects, and need access to an extra vehicle quickly. Handy offers renting or leasing as a cost-effective option allowing businesses to adapt to short term or longer term demands, without the need to buy.
Why Hire Instead of Buying?
When you buy a vehicle, you also need to factor in the costs and extra admin that come with ownership. There’s the upfront deposit, along with the paperwork that might come if you finance a vehicle. Not to mention keeping the insurance, registration, servicing, maintenance, and WoF up to date.
A fleet management company allows businesses to better manage their projects, knowing their admin is sorted. But if you think buying would make more sense, talk to us at Handy Commercials and pick up a quality used vehicle at an affordable rate.
Why Incorporate Fleet Management Into Your Business?
Here are the top benefits:
- Cost-effective – Instead of having excess vehicles that aren’t in use, hiring only when the need arises means you can save money and reduce operational costs.
- Scalability and flexibility – Many businesses, including installation and manufacturing companies often face changing transportation demands. Hiring makes scaling up or down on project volume or seasonality very flexible.
- Customised transport needs – Certain jobs need specialised vehicles, such as larger trucks or tail lifts. The ability to rent or lease means easy and fast access to a variety of vehicles on short notice – without locked-in contracts or ownership.
- Avoid Depreciation: Hiring avoids the depreciation that comes with owning a fleet. This means that businesses can continually update their fleet with newer vehicles without losing money on the resale.
- Expansion: Businesses that are expanding or venturing into new areas may find renting or leasing is a low risk way to meet changing demands.
- Reducing admin hassle: Fleet management allows businesses to shift the burden of administration onto the rental company, saving them time, money and effort.
Important Considerations
