Operation Carbon Neutral

Operating as a sustainable company forms part of the foundations of the business and reinforces our position as a key supply chain partner for our customers.

By committing to work with specialist sustainability consultants Redshaw Advisors and Plannet Zero we have a defined carbon reduction pathway in order to achieve our future net zero ambitions.

Electric Vehicle's and Sustainability

Electric vehicles (EVs) are increasingly popular among UK businesses due to the availability of government incentives and a well-developed EV charging infrastructure.

Companies that invest in EVs can benefit from lower fuel and maintenance costs, as well as positive brand reputation and government incentives such as grants and exemptions.

With a commitment from the UK government to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, EVs can help demonstrate a company’s commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.

Talk to PSD Vehicle Rental to see how we can help with the electrification of your fleet. You can contact us on 0345 222 1022 or email us at sales@thepsdgroup.co.uk.

    I would 100% recommend PSD I needed a van at very short notice Saturday morning at 11:30am I tried PSD knowing that they shut at 12 and I only had 30 minutes to hire one. I arrived at their address totally unprepared and not very optimistic … More 15 mins before closing. I was greeted by a young gentleman called Tom who went above and beyond to help me in the most professional manner. I’m a complete technophobe who doesn’t know how to use banking apps, utilities apps or even send an email. Tom talked me through each and every app and step of the way with the patients of a saint helping me to make sure I had all the information he needed. He then grabbed keys to a fantastic 2024 Ford transit van, showed me round, took some signatures and I was on my way. He didn’t once look at his watch. Thank you Tom you’re a great asset to the company.
