Contract Hire

Kel-Berg Contract Hire gives you the ability to enjoy operating a new Truck or trailer without having to take on full ownership. With this option you can lease your equipment for a fixed period and for a fixed monthly fee.

How does Kel-Berg Finance Contract Hire work?

At the start of your agreement you pay an agreed number of advance rentals upfront. Your monthly rentals are based on the difference between the initial value of the vehicle and its projected residual value at the end of your agreement. Therefore, only a proportion of the vehicle's value is repaid, this avoids a large initial outlay and keeps monthly payments lower. Then throughout your agreement you make regular instalments until your agreement comes to an end. We manage the vehicle taxation process on your behalf, as well as sending MOT reminders. We will also administrate any vehicle fines when necessary, however there is an administration fee of £30 per fine.

At the end of your agreement.

Return the vehicle with nothing more to pay. Subject to meeting our Vehicle Return Standards i.e. vehicle condition, excess mileage, etc. As detailed in the return conditions, available on request.
