How to apply for business van finance for a ULEZ compliant van.

There are many companies across the UK with vans that need replacing with newer ULEZ compliant vehicles. Bills can clock up very quickly, especially if you're travelling on a daily basis. ULEZ and LEZ areas are increasing and are likely to increase further in the future. It may be time to upgrade your current van to a newer model that’s Euro 6 and ULEZ compliant.

So how do you arrange van finance if you haven't chosen a specific vehicle yet?

We have quite a simple process to apply for new or used van finance. Using our online application form you can make an initial application and one of our friendly team will call you back to chat through what you're looking for. We'll then put a business van finance application together for you and a short writeup detailing the requirement the business has for an additional or replacement vehicle. Then, once approved in principle, you can start your search confident in the knowledge you have an approval ready and waiting for when you find the perfect van (finance is subject to status).

We have a panel of lenders, some of which will consider new start companies as well as those more well established and trading for a number of years already. We'll match your application to the most appropriate lender from within our panel to obtain the most competitive quote for your individual circumstances.

We try to make the whole process as simple and straight forward as possible for you and we won't charge you a fee for our service either.

Gaining an approval in principle upfront and keeping it separate from the vehicle purchase means you're free to search multiple van dealers to find the right van at the right price, without being tied to any one particular dealer. After conducting a few checks on the dealer you find we'll process the change of vehicle with the lender and organise for the finance documents to be sent to you. Once the agreement has been paid out to the dealer we'll let you know so you can then make arrangements for collection or delivery.
