From new start-ups, to rapidly growing and long-established companies, most will find themselves in need of vehicles to conduct their business.

Whatever the size or shape of your fleet, business vehicle hire from PSD is a flexible, cost-effective way to keep your team moving - whether you need one company car through our Business Car Hire, or a fleet of vans via Business Van Hire or a mix of vehicle types across your operation. Contract hire vehicles can save your company valuable time and money when compared to outright purchase. PSD St Helens and Warrington can supply cars, vans, tippers and minibuses to meet the requirements of your business.

Business Contract Hire Payments

Business vehicle hire doesn’t have to mean a long contract. For a fixed monthly fee PSD Vehicle Rental will cover all the operational costs associated with the fair wear and tear of running your company vehicles, excluding insurance, drivers and fuel. The fixed monthly fee depends on the type of vehicle, and the mileage you intend to cover during the contract period.

We offer both short-term and long-term business hire, so you’re not locked into a deal that doesn’t fit your business needs. We are able to offer contract hire terms from 12 months to 5 years, and will tailor your contract to suit your business requirements. Short-term rentals can run from 1-28 days – ideal for cover, trials, or seasonal demand – while long-term rentals of more than 28 days avoid the lock-in of a traditional lease.

PSD Vehicle Rental will arrange all of the required maintenance including routine servicing, MOT’s and mechanical breakdowns. Including, if opted for, organising replacement vehicles within a specified period. With this deal, you can escape all of the common headaches which come with vehicle ownership.

The Benefits of Business Vehicle Hire

Hiring a vehicle for business is about balancing cost, flexibility, and legal compliance – and getting the right vehicle for the job. Contracting a business vehicle – be it a car, a van, or indeed an entire fleet – allows you to ensure that your employees are driving safe and fully maintained, legally compliant vehicles. Reducing capital outlay for vehicles and protects your company from the unpredictable financial risks involved in owning and operating vehicles. Allowing you to concentrate on running your company and investing funds into the core activity of your business instead of depreciating assets, while we concentrate on running your vehicles.

Another benefit of hiring vehicles for business is the flexibility. With varying contract lengths, the company can respond more efficiently to changes in market conditions or staff requirements. The right vehicle depends on what you’re using it for – cargo capacity for deliveries, passenger count for client meetings, or reliable vehicles for everyday operations – and our range covers all of it, including premium options like Mercedes and BMW for corporate clients who need to make an impression on business trips.

Contract hiring vehicles from PSD could also help your business with its ESG agenda by operating the most up-to-date, fuel-efficient, and alternative fuel vehicles on offer at PSD Vehicle Rental in St Helens and Warrington.

Business Vehicle Hire Pricing & Cost Savings

Business vehicle hire is usually more cost-effective than buying outright or committing to a traditional lease – but it’s worth knowing what to check before you sign.

We keep our pricing transparent, with no hidden fees, so the monthly figure you’re quoted is the cost of the vehicle for the term you’ve agreed. Mileage limits are set at the start of the contract, and excess mileage is charged if you go over – so it’s worth being realistic about your business’s typical usage when you choose a plan.

Business accounts with PSD also unlock exclusive benefits and discounted rental rates, and our flexible plans mean you can hire by the day, week, month, or year depending on what suits your business.

For many companies, it’s cheaper to hiring a car through a business. Hire and contract hire avoid the large upfront capital outlay of buying, and VAT-registered businesses can reclaim VAT on vehicles used solely for business purposes. It’s always worth checking the current rules with HMRC or your accountant, as tax treatment depends on your specific circumstances.

The Benefits of Business Vehicle Hire

Why choose PSD for Business Vehicle Hire?

When you hire vehicles for your business, you’re not just choosing a car or van – you’re choosing a partner to manage it with you. Here’s what’s included as standard:

A dedicated account manager for your business, so there’s always a single point of contact for changes, issues, or renewals

Breakdown and support cover built into your rental agreement

Centralised, automated invoicing to cut down on admin

We operate from two locations – St Helens and Warrington – both within easy reach of Liverpool and Manchester Airports, so collection and drop-off fit around business travel as well as day-to-day use.
