What is Personal Contract Hire (PCH)

Personal Contract Hire is the most convenient and affordable way for individuals to lease a car. It gives you the benefits of having a car but without all the hassles associated with buying a car.

When you take out a personal contract hire agreement with Toomey Leasing you get a brand new car and all the support you need to manage repairs and maintenance. We provide you with the freedom but without hefty costs upfront.

A personal contract hire agreement also makes it easier for you to manage the costs of a car. With us, you pay a fixed fee so you know exactly how much is going out of your bank account.

A PCH means you never own the car outright. The advantage of this is that you avoid all the problematic issues that are associated with buying a car such as maintenance, repairs and selling the
vehicle.

Maintenance, repairs and service checks are taken care of by us. All you have to do is schedule an appointment through our website portal and drop the car off.

You don’t have to concern yourself with depreciation or warranty either. Once the PCH period expires all you have to do is return the car and choose a new one.

Upon returning the car, you will have nothing more to pay unless you exceed the mileage agreed to in the PCH or if the vehicle is damaged.

Personal Contract Hire is one of the simplest ways of getting access to a car. With the cost of buying and owning a new car in the UK right now, can you really afford not to take out a PCH?
