JG Pest Control turns to Fraikin for hassle-free solution

The new vans – comprising 10 Renault Kangoos and 14 Renault Traffics – are being supplied on a three-year full-service contract hire agreement as replacements for older vehicles as well as new additions to support continued business growth. The vehicles join the Iver-based firm’s fleet of 70 commercial vehicles, which are spread across much of England and cover a mix of both owned and leased assets.

JG Pest Control opted for Fraikin on the basis of its ability to take over ownership, financing, compliance and maintenance of the new vehicles. The personalised contract hire agreement included advice on vehicle specification, a dedicated contract manager, plus all repair and maintenance, including tyres, managed within Fraikin’s national service network.

Prior to delivery, Fraikin also arranged for each of the vans to be liveried and also managed the installation of roof racks and a vehicle tracking system which will work in synergy with the customer’s existing solution.

Callum Gale, operations director at JG Pest Control, explained: “We’ve had problems in the past with suppliers being unable to deliver what we want, when we need it. Once we understood the benefits of Fraikin’s full service contract hire package, it was an easy decision. Fraikin listened to our needs and provided us with the ideal solution.”

The new vans will cover between 20 and 200 miles per day and are on call 24/7/365.

“Fraikin’s consultative approach from the outset has kept us involved every step of the way and it’s made the process of modernising and expanding our fleet very simple. We are looking forward to continuing to develop our working relationship together, especially as our business continues to grow,” Gale added.
