Terms That Work for You
At Merchants Fleet, we provide a range of vehicle financing solutions designed to fit every circumstance. Whether you’re managing seasonal demands with a short-term lease or looking for a long-term solution for added stability, we’ll make sure you get the terms that work best for your business.
Flexible Rental Terms & Timeframes
There’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach here. Rent for as little as a month or as long as a year.
Option to Convert
Want to hold on to your rentals? At the end of your term, you can make it official and convert to a long-term lease.
Save Money
Why pay for vehicles you’re not using? Rentals are the ideal solution for seasonal demands or short-term projects — so you only pay for what you need, when you need it.
Adapt to Business Demands
Got shifting needs? Rentals let you easily add or remove vehicles to right-size your fleet.
From One Month to One Year: Fleet Rentals Made Simple
We offer a wide selection of trucks, vans, shuttles, and cars from top brands and leading manufacturers. Choose the rental solution that fits you best.
Short-term rentals: These are perfect for seasonal or project-based businesses looking for flexible terms. Start with just one month and go up to a full year — no minimum number of vehicles required! And if your needs change, you can easily convert to a long-term lease when the time comes.
Long-term rentals: Need a fleet for several months to a year or more? Long-term rentals are the way to go. They offer all the flexibility your business needs, with the added bonus of converting to a long-term lease if your project runs longer than expected. Plus, you can customize your services as you grow.
Fleet rentals or leases: Which fits your business needs?
Rentals offer month-to-month flexibility, while leases come with a minimum contractual commitment. Not sure which option suits you best? No worries — our experts are here to guide you every step of the way.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get approved for a fleet rental?
Our process takes an average of 3 to 5 days, which includes performing a credit check.
Are the fleet rentals allowed for off-road driving?
Our pickup truck rentals can be used for off-road use. However, our car and van rentals are not available for off-road use.
Can I drive my rental into other states?
Yes. Our fleet rental programs can include custom mileage options so that you can travel to and from wherever you need.
Can I put my company logo on the rental vehicle?
Yes. We have a full team of upfitting experts who can add vehicle wraps and logos to your rental vehicles. With our short-term rentals, these upfitting services are performed at the clients’ expense, and the upfits cannot affect the condition of the vehicle. At the end of the rental terms, the vehicle must be returned to its original condition.
Can I purchase the vehicle once I am done renting?
Yes. We have options to structure your rental terms so that you can convert to a long-term lease or buy out your vehicles.
Is there any type of special insurance needed for renting?
Most commercial umbrella insurance policies will suffice. We do require our clients to have automobile liability insurance at a minimum of $1 million combined single limit per occurrence, as well as comprehensive and collision insurance.
