OGILIVIE Fleet has secured a 45-strong van fleet for Grand Union Housing Group.

The agreement is a fully outsourced contract hire solution – moving away from the Group’s traditional fleet purchase model.

Grand Union Housing Group said the cost savings and the simplicity of monthly fixed costs were key factors in the switch.

Vauxhall was selected as the supplier due to its ability to meet cost, vehicle specification and van delivery times as well as its capability to provide service, maintenance and repair though its local franchise network.

Additionally, Ogilvie Fleet involved preferred vehicle conversion specialist Bott to equip the vans.

The all-diesel van fleet, which operates over a five-year/75,000-mile replacement cycle, is largely comprised of Vivaro panel vans with tippers based on the Movano chassis cab.

Grand Union Housing Group provides and develops affordable housing and related services in Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire, managing almost 12,000 properties.
