Our Story
A family run simplicity focussed vehicle solutions provider based in the midlands. Set-up by Terry & Jake in 2014. Terry’s life prior to Just included being a long-term Vehicle Rental customer himself and lead to him believing small businesses were often under-appreciated & not catered for by the vehicle rental market. On the back of this opportunity Just Vehicle Solutions set out to provide solutions to problems like hiring a new member of staff but not having to commit to a vehicle for 2/3+ years by offering 6-12 month car leases, providing a vehicle to newer businesses without two years of trading accounts, flexible commercial vehicle packages all whilst ensuring JVS core values of Simplicity, Transparency and Efficiency were at the heart of all of their services.
The next evolution of Just Vehicle Solutions providing asset finance on used vehicles came on the back of demand from our customers who often wanted to buy their vehicles at the end of their rental contracts, rather than pass our customers onto brokers we didn’t know, we moved to offer this service ourselves and ensure customers received the same high level of service they are accustomed to.
Our latest short-term hire facility of daily and weekly vehicles in 2022 comes on the back of demand from the Covid-19 pandemic and many of our business customers choosing to downsize vehicles or work from home and needing just a short-term vehicle from time to time to travel to business meetings.
