This is a directory of credit hire and accident management firms. We are not an insurer, not your insurer, and not a credit hire company. One listed firm holds paid Featured Partner placement. How we earn: /about/
Four firms in this directory claim van, LCV or commercial replacement capability: Auto Claims Assist, Chief Vehicle Rentals, Enterprise Rent‑A‑Car and Magna Accident Services (which specialises in non-standard vehicles). For a working van or commercial vehicle, the replacement has to match payload, racking and licence category — a car is not a like-for-like substitute for a tool of trade.

Which credit hire companies supply commercial vehicles?
The four listed firms claim commercial capability in their published descriptions, collected 07/08/2026: Enterprise brings a large rental van fleet, Chief Vehicle Rentals lists commercial vehicles and motorhomes among its classes, and Magna positions itself on non-standard vehicles generally. Claims are marked as such until verified with each firm.
What should commercial drivers check before choosing a firm?
Specify what your vehicle does — payload, fit-out, licence category, any operator-licence implications — and get the firm to confirm in writing that the replacement matches, not just that “a van” is available. Commercial vehicle classes and what like-for-like means for them decide whether a replacement is usable; the general checklist is the 12 questions to ask.
