Generally, in a lease agreement, expenses such as maintenance, repairs, and insurance are borne by the lessee.

Furthermore, there are no long-term commitments/contracts and no balloon payments and you can swap and even return your vehicle as your lifestyle changes.
Many individuals find the conventional vehicle-buying experience to be a hassle. They dislike the sales pressure. The purchasing process itself is slow and complex, and involves a lot of paperwork, especially the financial portion. Price transparency is often lacking. Subscription exists to give you access to a vehicle in the quickest and easiest way possible. There is no need for a large deposit or long-term financial loans, just a minimum subscription period and one fortnightly or monthly payment.
Even individuals who are still dependent on a vehicle on a daily basis are increasingly preferring an alternative to traditional vehicle ownership. With subscription you can swap or return your vehicle each month based on your lifestyle and/or financial needs.

A vehicle subscription enables businesses to quickly adjust their fleet size based on demand and nimbly react to changing business conditions.
Rather than lease, which generally is for periods of two to four years, subscription offers more flexibility in their duration, even for periods as short as months.
In view of today’s uncertainties, why lock yourself into a long-term financial commitment which is difficult to get out of and comes with severe cancellation fees? Subscription gives you the ability to have the fleet your business wants that’s right for the purpose right now without the residual value risk that comes with ownership or leasing.
A repossession fee applies where we have to repossess the vehicle for any reason.
The repossession fee includes the agent, towing, transport storage and administration fees.
The typical fee imposed would be $1,000 plus.
All Subscription Plan require a security deposit which is held as collateral against the vehicle for the duration of the subscription. The deposit may be used to recover cost incurred by Everything Fleet such as returning the vehicle to its original condition.
The deposit ranges from $500.00 to $2,500.00 and is dependent on the results of an assessment performed during the booking process and the make/model of the vehicle you have chosen. This process includes a credit assessment, identity verification, fraud detection and any documentation we may request from you to determine eligibility
If you return the vehicle prior to the expiration of the minimum term of your subscription plan there will be no refunds provided and you will be charged the remaining term.
You should always ensure funds are available. Late fees apply if you miss a payment cycle.
If your subscription falls into arrears, you may be requested to return the vehicle.

Over the past several months we have been working hard on the evolution of our company. We’re excited to unveil to you our new name, new logo and new website as part of an extensive rebranding initiative. While this is a significant change, we want you to know, our core beliefs and outstanding customer service has not changed. We welcome you to join us on our rebranding journey as we reintroduce ourselves and begin paving the way towards a whole new mobility experience – for our clients, our community and for ourselves.
We fully embrace the fact we’re different – because it’s made us better.
There is a certain level of damage to a vehicle that is considered to be fair wear and tear as a result of ongoing use. This is treated differently to damage that is caused by yourself, which you will be held responsible for. The distinction between reasonable fair wear and tear and unacceptable damage is clearly outlined in our Fair Wear and Tear Guide.
There is a clear distinction between Fair Wear and Tear and unacceptable damage.
Damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence is never fair wear and tear and is excluded from your damage cover.
You should always refer to the Terms and Conditions of the Contract for a full understanding of the exclusions that apply.
We have a range of optional protection packages available for those who wish to reduce their excess in the event of an accident or damage to their vehicle.
Call the Roadside Assistance number to have the vehicle towed, do not continue to attempt to drive the vehicle.
The full Damage Liability Fee will be payable. Fuelling with incorrect fuel is classed as negligence, therefore, protection options will not cover for this kind of damage.
