Why start a business with a rented commercial vehicle?
The decision to start a business in today's environment carries with it a significant amount of risk and a high level of responsibility for the upfront investment put into the new venture. Times are turbulent and predicting the situation in the coming months is really difficult. Therefore, it is ideal if the capital invested in the new company is as low as possible and the liabilities as short as possible.
Most companies have to resolve the issue of transport before they start operations. If it is about supply, logistics, distribution, transportation of goods, the clear choice is commercial vehicles. There are now several options for obtaining and financing commercial vehicles, and purchasing is certainly not the most advantageous.
For a start, you need to assess how often you will actually use the commercial vehicle. For companies that will be providing courier services, for example, it is crucial to assess how many vehicles will be needed. How much storage space you are able to use, or whether the vehicle will need to be driven into garages and car parks, which can significantly affect the cost of the model you choose. Last but not least, you need to realistically assess the expected monthly mileage of the vehicle. Answering these questions should give you a basic idea of the cost of acquiring and operating a commercial vehicle. It is important to note that if you are purchasing a vehicle, fixed costs will not account for a change in any of these factors. When you purchase a vehicle, the costs are fixed and if, over time, it turns out that your initial estimate of the use of such a vehicle was incorrect, your business remains burdened with the same fixed costs.
Despite the fact that we are living in an age where car ownership is a relic, there are still many businesses for whom buying a vehicle is the only option. But is it really the most viable option for starting a business? AVIS today offers a wide range of products with varying lengths of tie-ups, mileage and a diverse range of commercial vehicles from pick-ups, to L3H2s, to refrigerated vehicles. With a wide range of services and a personal approach, you can tailor your commercial vehicle hire to exactly match your usage and the nature of your business, keeping costs to a minimum and gaining a host of benefits such as 24-hour assistance on roads throughout the EU or the provision of a Slovak motorway vignette. This takes away the hassle of vehicle registration, financing, insurance, warranty checks, or depreciation of the vehicle itself.
Short-term rentals without a commitment
AVIS Van Rental offers clients so-called short-term rental products. These are generally rentals from one day to several months in length, and they are free of obligation. This is a great option if you are not sure how long you will need the vehicle, and the length of the rental can be extended or shortened operationally without incurring additional penalties. This product is also suitable if you only need to use the vehicle occasionally. Another great advantage is the availability of the vehicles, which is practically immediate and the rental itself is just a matter of a phone call or a few clicks on the website www.avis.sk or www.avisvan.sk, where you can make a reservation online. If you have the opportunity to make a deal that ties you into immediate use of commercial vehicles, don't hesitate.
