Last Mile Delivery with an Electric Vehicle Fleet

With an all-electric delivery fleet, you can take advantage of:

  • Less maintenance: EVs require fewer fluids that need to be replaced, and don’t contain as many moving parts as gas-powered engines.
  • Lower total cost of ownership: Save on fuel and maintenance, plus receive tax incentives when you choose electric.
  • A more environmentally friendly solution for last mile, stop/go applications: Frequent stopping and starting burns more fuel, which results in greenhouse gas emissions. EVs alleviate this issue due to lower fuel needs.
  • More uptime and efficiency: Since EVs can be charged overnight or between shifts, drivers won’t have to stop for gas in the middle of a run. Plus, fewer maintenance needs keep your EVs on the road for longer.

Our options from top OEMs include new battery electric vehicles (BEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs).

How It Works

Specific models include the RAM ProMaster, Chevy Express, GMC Savana, Ford Transit, Mercedes Benz Sprinter 3500, Isuzu 16’ Box Truck, and many more. If you can’t find the commercial vehicle you need, please contact us to check our availability.

Are there mileage limits?

We offer flexible, month-to-month rental terms on pickup beds with mileage options available.

Are service or maintenance packages available?

We have developed a variety of service packages to meet your company’s needs. With our full maintenance program, you pay one fixed monthly payment, and we handle everything. The fee never changes, no matter how much we work on your fleet. Administered maintenance enables you to pay for repairs as you go. Reserve maintenance allows you to pay a fixed amount each month, and at the end of the lease term, all bills are reconciled, and the account is balanced. The final option is tailored maintenance, which is a customized solution for your fleet.

How does the vehicle pickup/return work?

No matter where you are in the United States or how many locations you have, Merchants can deliver a commercial truck rental product to you. We take care of the pickup and delivery nationwide for any number of trucks needed.

To return a vehicle, notify your Account Manager who will start the offboarding process by sending a form for each vehicle being returned. These forms must be completed within 7 days, otherwise a new request must be made. Vehicle pickup is coordinated with logistics; they will relay any chargeable vehicle damage costs to your Account Manager for payment or insurance claim info.

Allowing Novus Ag to lease short term vehicles while factory ordering enables us to save tens of thousands while immediately placing the employee in a high-quality truck.
