What Delivery & Collection Costs Across Scotland
Every vehicle comes from our Yorkshire-based partner and is dropped at your door wherever you are in Scotland. That delivery is billed on top of your monthly payment on every contract type, subscriptions included, at £1.45 (+VAT) per mile plus £15 (+VAT) — calculated from the driving distance between our partner’s fleet centre and your address. Below is a rough region-by-region guide so you’ve an idea of the numbers before you get in touch.
| Zone | Example Towns & Cities | Indicative Drive Time | Indicative Delivery Cost Band |
|---|---|---|---|
| Central Belt | Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling, Paisley, East Kilbride, Livingston, Falkirk, Motherwell, Hamilton | Usually around 3.5–4 hours’ drive time | The most affordable band under our per-mile delivery charge, given the shorter distance involved |
| Fife, Tayside & Ayrshire | Dundee, Perth, Ayr, Dunfermline, Kilmarnock | Usually around 4–4.5 hours’ drive time | A slightly higher band than the Central Belt under the same per-mile delivery charge |
| North East Scotland | Aberdeen | Usually around 5–5.5 hours’ drive time | A higher band under the per-mile delivery charge, reflecting the longer distance travelled |
| Highlands | Inverness | Usually 6.5 hours’ drive time or more | Assessed individually under the per-mile delivery charge — contact us for a firm quote |
These bands are a guide, not a quote. On every contract type, delivery is billed apart from the vehicle rental at £1.45 (+VAT) per mile plus £15 (+VAT); as a worked example, 100 miles comes to £160.00 before VAT (100 × £1.45 = £145.00, plus the £15.00 charge). We’ll always confirm the precise delivery and collection cost against your postcode before you commit, and display it against the listing itself wherever we can.
Delivery on car & van subscriptions
On every car and van subscription, delivery sits apart from the monthly price rather than being folded into it, wherever in Scotland you happen to be based. It’s charged at £1.45 (+VAT) per mile plus £15 (+VAT), worked out from the driving distance between our partner’s fleet centre and your address — the table above gives a general steer, or ask our team when you enquire for a figure specific to your postcode. Collection when your subscription ends follows the same approach, and needs 5 working days’ notice from you.
Delivery on short and long-term leases
Short-term and long-term leases carry the identical delivery charge — £1.45 (+VAT) per mile plus £15 (+VAT) — confirmed against your exact postcode before you apply, and displayed next to the individual vehicle listing wherever we’re able to show it.
Delivery & Collection FAQs
How do you calculate what I’ll pay for delivery?+
The charge works out at £1.45 (+VAT) per mile plus £15 (+VAT), calculated from the driving distance between our partner’s fleet centre in Yorkshire and your Scottish postcode. Region-by-region bands are shown above for guidance, and we confirm an exact figure before you sign up to anything.
Does the monthly price cover delivery?+
No — on every contract type, car subscriptions included, delivery is billed on top of the monthly price at £1.45 (+VAT) per mile plus £15 (+VAT). We always confirm the precise figure for your postcode before you commit, and show it alongside the individual listing.
Can you deliver out to the Highlands and Islands?+
Yes — though journeys to the Highlands and islands usually take longer and get priced individually, still following the same per-mile formula. Get in touch and we’ll come back with a firm cost and timescale for your area.
What happens with collection once my agreement ends?+
On subscriptions, we need 5 working days’ notice to book collection in, subject to vehicle availability and any seasonal blackout dates. Fixed-term leases have collection arranged automatically ahead of the contract end date. Either way, the same delivery pricing applies in reverse.
