When it comes to the school minibus, given the choice I’m sure many of us would rather choose to drive a new one rather than an old one.
And when it comes to maintenance work for the minibus, I’m sure that the vast majority of us would choose not to have to regularly check the tyres, the clutch, the battery, etc.
You can now breathe a sigh of relief as both of those choices can now be met through having a leased minibus that comes complete with a maintenance contract.
The great benefit of leasing is that the purchase of the bus doesn’t come in one lump from school funds. Rather the bus is paid for as it is used by the school.
And you also get the benefit of a new minibus which is less likely to have problems – plus the option of having a professional undertake all the standard maintenance and servicing.
This effectively reduces the onus that is put on the person who is nominated in the school’s transport policy to look after the minibus. Indeed, it was to overcome issues and difficulties such as this that we introduced full maintenance as part of our minibus leasing.
Not only do the schools that use our service get a new minibus without having to use current capital to buy it, but they also get our certification that the bus has been checked by qualified engineers.
Given that the majority of school minibuses on the road are over five years old, this approach can be particularly valuable.
