At T G Commercials, we are the most well-known company for truck hire, van hire, lorry hire, skip hire, and much more, in Central and Northern England. Based in Rotherham, we service a large area, and we can supply you with whatever it is that you need. You may need van rental in Sheffield, a tipper truck in Huddersfield, a hiab in Scunthorpe, or a Luton (with tail lift) in Nottingham – whatever it is, we have got one. In fact, we have several.

You can hire for as long or as short a period as you need. So, you might need a van in Lincoln for a day, or you might need it for months. No problem. Not only that, but if things don’t work out the way that you planned – it happens sometimes – and you booked a pickup in Matlock for two months but find that you have finished everything in five weeks, you can simply return it. So, you don’t have to keep on hiring it just because you booked it for a given length of time.

Using truck and van rental in Leeds is so much easier and less expensive than buying your own, if your business has ups and downs as regards your delivery requirements. Of course, if you happen to be G4S or Evri, then you will use your vans constantly, every day every week, year in and year out.

However, if you are like many businesses, there will be times when you are simply not as busy as others. If you buy your own fleet, that means that you can have vans and trucks and low loaders and skip wagons sitting about doing nothing. Unfortunately, they will still need to be taxed and insured and maintained, whether or not you are actually using them. So, at that point in time, they are nothing but an overhead that earns you nothing.

Don’t Take Our Word For It

Using us for truck and van rental in Leeds, or anywhere else for that matter, under those circumstances just makes total sense. Don’t take our word for it. Check out our rates for the transport that you need and then sit down for a few minutes and do the sums.   

In fact, apart from the hire cost when you need van rental in Sheffield, for instance, the only other overhead you have is the fuel. Yes, even if you are going to be running about in the ULEZ zone in London you won’t have to pay the £12.50 charge because all our vehicles are ULEZ compliant. Going forward, this is going to be even more important, because it will become more widespread as other authorities follow suit with low emission requirements. If you run your own fleet, that is another thing that you have to consider because you will have to update your vehicles, and that costs money.

The same thing applies with the DVS – Direct Vision Standard. This requires all lorries over 12 tonnes to have a safety permit for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) in order to operate in the Greater London Area – or risk a £550 fine each time you’re found to be non-compliant.

As you can see, for many types of business, renting vehicles is a definite advantage compared to buying them.
