Contract Hire
A long-term rental agreement where you pay a fixed monthly amount over an agreed period. The agreement includes costs like maintenance and servicing, making it an attractive option for businesses seeking to manage expenses predictably. At the end of the contract, simply return the machine without any obligation to purchase it. This allows you to use up-to-date equipment or vehicles without the significant upfront costs of buying, keeping your operations flexible and current with the latest models.

- Accurate budgeting: contract hire includes maintenance for predictable running costs. Equipment is returned at the end of the hire period eliminating residual value risks.
Contract Hire Finance Solutions
Contract hire is ideal for businesses that want to keep operations moving with dependable machinery, commercial vehicles or equipment, without committing to asset ownership. It gives you the use of the asset for a fixed term, while keeping costs clear and manageable.
Because the asset is returned at the end of the hire period, your business does not need to worry about resale values, depreciation or disposal. This makes contract hire especially useful where equipment needs to be regularly updated, replaced or kept in line with modern operational requirements.
At Outside Finance, we help businesses across sectors including agriculture, golf and groundcare, green energy renewables, manufacturing, construction, and commercial vehicles. Whether you are looking to hire machinery, upgrade your fleet or manage equipment costs more effectively, our team can help you explore contract hire options that fit your business.
