Vehicle Disposal Options

Your company could be missing out when selling ex-company vehicles

Many fleets are missing huge opportunities to maximise the residual values on their old company vehicles by not seeking help from professional re-marketing companies. The net effect of disposing of vehicles using a professional management programme can literally mean over £500 per vehicle.

There are many routes to market for used vehicles with varying levels of sales values and risk exposure to the seller. You should carefully consider all of these options in order to maximise your results.

You can consider the following routes to market:

• Part exchange to new car dealers – fast but low value, and no liability on condition.
• Sales to traders – slower and low value, but no liability on condition.
• Sales to drivers’ family – slower, higher value but your company is liable for the vehicle condition.
• Sales to the public via internet – slower, higher value but again, your company is liable for vehicle condition and the sales can be time-consuming.
• Sales at car auctions – fast, opportunities for far higher values, with no liability on condition.

UK Fleet Manager offers a full auction management programme which ensures vehicles are correctly marketed, presented and offered at the optimum auction location, with results far exceeding dealer part-exchange or trader purchases. Your vehicles can be collected at short notice from any location and are fully insured during the process.
