Keeping you moving... 🏁
Great to see the Practical colours out on track at Pembrey for the BTRDA Clubman’s Rallycross Championship last weekend. Plenty of action, plenty of pace and a great day of rallycross. 🚗💨

If your business hires vehicles regularly, ask your local Practical branch about setting up a business account.

With agreed rates, priority availability and simpler billing, it can make regular vehicle hire much easier to manage.

Speak to your local branch to get started.

Not every day we get to help a Leicester City football player make her next big move! ⚽️🚐

We were so excited to work with you and help get everything packed up and ready for the journey from Leicester ➡️ Manchester!

It was an absolute pleasure having you with us, and we really appreciate you choosing Practical Leicester for such an important move.

From everyone here at Practical, we want to wish you the biggest good luck for this next chapter. We hope Manchester treats you well, and we’ll be keeping an eye out for you on the pitch! 👀⚽️

Great to see Mushbury Garage Ltd flying the Practical name on the hill climb scene 🏁🚗

Three wins and a second-place finish in the Wiscombe Championship made for a brilliant couple of weekends. 👏

Need a vehicle for longer than a few weeks? 🚗🚐

Once you go beyond 28 days, the hire structure changes. Practical offers flexible hire from 1 to 12 months, giving you a useful middle ground when you need a vehicle for longer but leasing still feels like too much of a commitment.

Speak to your local Practical branch to discuss the options available.

Getting there shouldn’t be hard…
Getting your mates to help you move house, however, is a different story. 😂📦

POV: You went in for a tin of paint and came out with enough timber to build an extension. 🪵😂

Don’t make three trips. Hire a van and get it done in one.
