Northgate Vehicle Hire has re-packaged and re-launched its light commercial vehicle (LCV) fleet disposal service, We Buy You Rent.

It provides a managed route for fleets to dispose of owned vehicles and replace them with fully maintained Northgate rental vehicles for a fixed monthly cost.

Alternatively, Northgate can purchase the entire fleet at market value and then rent it back on a contract basis.

Northgate says that, as fleet disposal can be costly and time-consuming for businesses, the latest refresh of We Buy You Rent, ensures companies achieve a fair market value for vehicles.

A second disposal option available to fleets is offered by Van Monster Remarketing, part of the Redde Northgate Group of companies, which gives businesses access to a dedicated online auction platform for used LCV disposals.

Companies have the ability to set fixed reserve prices for vehicles, the length of an online sale and monitor sales progress of vehicles 24/7.

Neil McCrossan, Northgate’s sales and marketing director, said: “It’s important that businesses have the ability to manage their fleet disposals efficiently without compromising their business.

“For this in mind, we have re-packaged our existing options to include ultimate flexibility all supported by the expertise of our remarketing partner, Van Monster to the advantage of our customers.”

Northgate Vehicle Hire has 67 UK locations, a 50,000-strong fleet and a team of mobile engineers to help minimise vehicle downtime.

It can also provide expert consultative advice across all aspects of operating electric vehicles (EVs), helping customers with everything from choosing the right e-LCV through charging infrastructure to driver training.
