Challenges

RSP's need to quickly add new vans to grow their fleet of 30 was essential. The difficulty was in finding a reliable van leasing provider who had the stock capacity to fulfil this need with the 'right' vans. This would help avoid declining enquiries and stretching resource to keep up with demand.

Optimise the fleet's efficiency to reduce running costs while supporting 'business as usual' tasks. They would need to ensure vans continued to meet the requirements of their engineers and the jobs at hand.

Solution

  • By choosing Vansdirect as their new van supplier, RSP were able to utilise our strong supply relationships and extensive in-stock van offering, enabling them to take direct delivery of 6 new Citroen Berlingo vans.
  • Taking the time to understand the customer's needs allowed our team of van experts to provide advice on the best-suited vans for their teams. They discovered their servicing engineers could work with smaller vans like the Citroen Berlingo instead of larger vans. These were then repurposed for their installation team and put to more efficient use.
  • Each van was liveried with RSP's custom branding and delivered to the client utilising our free delivery service.

Don't just take our word for it

"The ability to add new vans to our fleet quickly was crucial for our expansion into the wider market, however making sure these was the 'right' type of vans was just as important. Vansdirect didn't just deliver on time, they ensured we made the best decision based on the needs of our engineers and contract types - saving us a lot of upfront cost and noticeably reducing the running cost of our fleet."

"The Vansdirect team really understood our needs which has ultimately allowed us to take on more, and bigger contracts, all without the need for 'emergency' rental vans."

"It's the small things I like most about Vansdirect, from their helpful advice and delivery updates to the welcome packs each van comes with which our drivers love."
