Commercial vehicle support and controlled terms

Truck hire terms to check for Eastleigh

The booking team confirms the important details up front, including availability, driver rules, mileage, delivery and any specialist vehicle requirements.

Read the booking terms

Free Collection & Delivery

At an approved Eastleigh home or workplace, the vehicle can be delivered and collected free.

The address, access, timing and vehicle must be accepted before handover. Standard service excludes stations, airports and ports, plus empty properties where the customer is not registered. Changed, unsuccessful or specialist visits can carry a charge.

Unlimited Rental Mileage

Qualifying truck hire bookings include unlimited hire mileage with the stated fair-use limits.

The company-hire allowance is normally 2,800 miles per 28-day period, calculated pro rata when the hire is shorter or longer. Courier use is prohibited. Other delivery-service or extra-distance work requires written acceptance, with possible excess-mile costs.

UK Mainland Coverage

Vehicles can be delivered and collected across the UK mainland when the exact journey details and supply are confirmed.

The booking team must confirm both postcodes, dates, vehicle and declared use. Island and other non-mainland journeys require a separate check.

European Cover

Prior approval can extend a qualifying hire to Europe with the required insurance and breakdown cover.

Ask the team to confirm the permitted countries, documents, fees, deposit and vehicle limits. One-way bookings remain UK-mainland only, so the vehicle cannot be left in Europe.

One-Way Vehicle Hire

Selected vehicles can start and finish at different eligible UK mainland locations.

The start address, finishing postcode, route, vehicle and one-way fee all need agreement in advance. The service does not cover a European one-way journey.

Comprehensive Insurance Included

Comprehensive insurance is normally included for eligible named drivers on vehicles up to and including 7.5 tonnes.

Driver eligibility and an insurance excess apply. Goods carried in the vehicle and damage involving overhead height, tyres, the windscreen or flood are excluded; check every policy term in the quotation.

10% Off With Approved Company Own Insurance

Qualifying comprehensive company insurance reduces the relevant hire rate by 10%.

Send the company policy and certificate early enough for approval before delivery. Once supplied, the vehicle must remain on the customer's Motor Insurance Database record for the full rental period.

Wide Vehicle Range Available

Several representative truck hire classes can be compared for the Eastleigh job or journey.

The pictured vehicles and named models represent groups and do not confirm the supplied vehicle. Check the actual make, model, body, gearbox, equipment and specification for the booking.
