Contract hire, short-term hire or purchase

Short-term hire covers peaks in workload, seasonal campaigns or breakdowns. Long-term contract hire is the alternative to buying, with all costs under control. Buying, new or used, pays off when use is intensive and continuous. We compare them in detail in buying or hiring a forklift and contract hire versus leasing.
