The specialist leasing and fleet management division of Bradford-based JCT600 was chosen as the supplier for WVR UK’s first ever fleet of contract hire vans, having previously supplied the company’s cars.
In total 11 vans – comprising five Ford Transit Connect vans and six Ford Fiesta vans – all with Cumbrian Cottages and Yorkshire Cottages branding, were delivered to its head office in Earby, Lancashire.
The vehicles will be used by the company’s maintenance team, which looks after its cottages in and around Windermere and Keswick in Cumbria and Grassington in Yorkshire.
The vans were chosen specifically because of their compact size – providing the team with sufficient capacity to carry equipment, but being small enough for narrow, rural lanes.
The four-year contract hire agreement provides the company with full maintenance, including tyres and breakdown cover.
Sarah Rogan, head of HR at Wyndham Vacation Rentals UK, added: “This was a complex delivery for us and the JCT600 team has done it with huge efficiency, attention to detail and organisation – they undoubtedly go the extra mile for their customers to guarantee a successful fleet.”
