Beyond the Vehicle: What ‘Full Support’ Includes in a Contract Hire Agreement

A CoreHire contract isn't just a lease with a different name on it. The "full support" wrapper is what makes contract hire fundamentally different from owning.

What's inside a CoreHire agreement

The vehicle
Routine servicing and MOTs
Mechanical repairs and breakdown cover
Replacement vehicle access where needed
Tax and VED
Fleet management reporting
Compliance support (DVS, tachograph, calibration)
A dedicated account manager

What's NOT your problem any more

Booking MOTs
Sourcing parts
Negotiating with multiple repair providers
Managing depreciation and resale
Tracking compliance changes (DVS, ULEZ, Clean Air Zones)
Buying replacement vehicles when current ones age out

How this changes your day

Your team spends less time talking to vehicle suppliers and more time running the operation. The number of phone calls, invoices and decisions per vehicle drops sharply.

What "support" looks like in practice

Quarterly fleet reviews with your account manager
Vehicle utilisation and downtime reporting
Proactive recommendations on spec and contract length
Compliance briefings ahead of regulatory changes
Coordinated upgrades when vehicles are due renewal

Why this scales

Whether you have five CoreHire vehicles or fifty, the support model is the same. Adding vehicles doesn't add proportionally to your admin overhead.
