What is no deposit van leasing?
No deposit leasing is a way to lease a van without having to pay a deposit, so you don’t need to save up large amounts of cash prior to your arrangement.
Pay a monthly fee and use the van for the duration of your contract. Depending on your agreement, you’ll be able to pay a balloon payment at the end of your contract and own it, or hand it back and get another one.
Here’s what you need to do:
- Pick a van and submit an enquiry
- Tell us your lease requirements and we’ll arrange your contract
- Go through your final credit checks
- Arrange to pick the van up or have it delivered
- Drive your lease van and return it at the end of your contract
What van leasing options are available?
There are two types of leasing when it comes to vans, business and personal. Business leasing is where you lease the van through a company, and personal leasing is where you lease it through yourself.
There isn’t much difference, but business leases come with tax benefits, which means it is often cheaper than personal leasing. With either, you can choose whether to hand the van back or buy it at the end of your agreement.

If you plan on keeping the van, you should consider buying. However, if you want to switch the van then leasing is a great option. Business van leasing is popular because business owners don't have to worry about losing a valuable business asset if the van breaks.
