Commercial vehicle hire website development built to scale with the fleet

01 How we approach it

Custom-coded pages, not a page builder

Every page is built with custom code rather than assembled from a drag-and-drop page builder, which is what keeps page speed high as the site grows to dozens of vehicle class and depot pages. A 90 or higher Google PageSpeed score on mobile and desktop is guaranteed for every page we build and host.

Integration with the systems you already run

Enquiry forms are built to send structured data into your CRM or transport management system by direct API, Zapier or Make, so development includes the connection to your operations, not just the visible page. That is the difference between a site that looks finished and one that actually moves an enquiry into your pipeline.

A structure that scales without a rebuild

Vehicle class and depot pages are built from a repeatable pattern, so development that supports three depots also supports thirty. Adding a new one is a content update handled as a revision, not a new development project.

Commercial vehicle hire businesses that have outgrown a page builder: dozens of vehicle class and depot pages, a CRM or transport management system to connect, and a site that slows down every time a page is added.

What operators say about commercial vehicle hire website development

  • The part I rate most highly is the form, not the visuals. It collects vehicle class, operating area and hire period up front, so the back-and-forth we used to do by reply has largely gone. The first message is usually enough to act on now.

  • The 'did you receive it?' calls about commercial fleet inquiries were a daily occurrence here. The new confirmation states what happens next and how to amend anything that needs changing. It is a small corner of the site that makes the whole process feel finished.

09 What is not included

What is not included?

Plainly, so there are no surprises after you order:

  • Custom software beyond the website, such as a customer portal for your hire customers or a fleet app.
  • Building or hosting your CRM or transport management system; we connect to it.
  • Compliance, licensing, insurance or legal advice of any kind; we build the pages for the information you supply.

Questions about commercial vehicle hire website development

What is the site built with?

A custom-coded build rather than a page builder or a plugin-heavy platform, which is what keeps pages fast as the site grows. The technical stack is our responsibility; you never need to manage it.

Can it integrate with our existing CRM or transport management system?

Yes. Enquiry forms are connected by direct API, Zapier or Make, configured during onboarding to match the system your team already uses.

Do we need our own developer for updates?

No. Development and updates are handled by us as part of your plan, delivered through your client portal as revisions.

How is page speed guaranteed as the site grows?

The build pattern for vehicle class and depot pages is designed to stay light regardless of how many pages exist, and every page we host carries the 90 or higher PageSpeed guarantee.

Which CRMs and systems can the forms connect to?

Any system that accepts data by API, or through Zapier or Make, which covers most CRMs and many transport management systems. We confirm the connection during onboarding and test it before launch.

Is the site built on WordPress?

No. It is custom coded, with no plugin library and no admin panel, which is what keeps it fast and removes most of the maintenance and security work.

Can we get access to the code?

The code is licensed to you while your plan is active and maintained by us. Your domain and content are yours, and your content is exported to you within 14 days if you leave.

What happens when the site needs a new feature?

Most changes, such as a new page type or form field, are handled as revisions within 2 to 5 working days. If something is genuinely outside the plan, we tell you before any work starts.
