easi-Fleet Management from Grosvenor Leasing

Since 1981, Grosvenor Leasing has stood as the UK's leading privately-owned contract hire and fleet management provider, specialising in both cars and light commercial vehicle fleets.

For businesses with a small vehicle fleet, managing cars and vans can be both time-consuming and expensive. The ongoing responsibilities of handling contract hire suppliers or maintaining a fleet of company-owned vehicles can lead to significant stress.

Addressing driver queries, managing garage bills, processing expense claims and fuel cards, and dealing with accidents, speeding fines, tax renewals, MOTs, and driving licence checks can easily become overwhelming, often requiring dedicated personnel.

Imagine transferring all these responsibilities to a team of professional fleet managers, thus saving money and alleviating stress. Picture having all vehicle and driver information readily available through an intuitive, web-based fleet management system. easi-Fleet Management from Grosvenor Leasing offers exactly this.

Our fixed-cost service caters specifically to smaller fleets of cars and vans, ensuring personalised service without the frustration of call centres or voicemail queues.
