1. Peak or seasonal times
Whether unexpected or seasonal demand, short term hire will allow you to react quickly and deal with increased demand… But remember to book early for big calendar events like the Christmas rush!
2. Emergency replacement
If your truck is being serviced or repaired, a short term hire replacement can be booked to make sure you keep your operation up and running.
3. Product evaluation
Thinking about changing equipment? Short term hire allows you to thoroughly evaluate a specific model before purchasing or committing to a long term rental.
4. Specific Requirements
Do you move a specific type of pallet or product once or twice a year?! Short term hire is the answer.
5. Bridging truck (Change)
Is your business going through operational change (A warehouse location)? If so a short term hire truck can reduce the impact of the change by giving you the flexibility to decide when, where and how long you need support.
