Flexter recently achieved a major milestone in its mission to simplify and improve the process of renting a pickup truck, van, or larger truck online.

Its proprietary platform has now exceeded 1,000 locations across the United Kingdom and the United States, offering light-duty commercial van and truck rentals, the company announced Oct. 15.

This expansion solidifies Flexter's position as a leader in the truck reservation industry, offering more convenience and accessibility to consumers in every major region of both countries.

This growth stems from Flexter’s strategic partnerships with renowned suppliers, including Enterprise Mobility Europe, Hertz North America, NextCar, Priceless Rent A Car, Rent-A-Wreck, Green Motion, U-Save, Thrifty, Dollar, Europcar, and Drivalia UK. These collaborations are key to providing renters with a diverse fleet and fast service.

Enhanced Accessibility and Convenience

Whether in urban centers like London and New York or more remote areas, Flexter's extensive network of truck rental providers are spread out at convenient locations. The platform offers a full range of truck rental options, from small vans and pickup trucks for local moves to larger trucks for large cargo and long-haul journeys. The user-friendly interface allows consumers to compare prices, check availability, and book rentals with ease, saving time and effort.

“Renting a truck has been too complicated compared to everything else in the mobility space,” said Thomas Lefebvre, founder and CEO of Flexter, in a recent interview with ARN. “Our transparency, real-time booking, instant confirmation, booking process, and rates provide emotional comfort for our clients, with whom we have increased levels of communication.”

This expansion can benefit small businesses, leveraging Flexter's broad network of truck, van, and pickup truck rental providers to efficiently manage logistics and transportation without the overhead costs of maintaining their own fleet. By partnering with leading suppliers, Flexter accesses easily sourced, reliable, cost-effective pickup, van, and truck rentals.

“We provide an optimized path for people who don’t have the time to look around,” said Steve Lazaroff, who works in business development and communications at Flexter. “Four clicks will reserve a vehicle quickly. We connect suppliers and customers at the right place and the right time.”

Commitment to Global Expansion

Flexter plans to expand globally, aiming to bring its platform to new markets and extend its reach to more customers worldwide. The company is enhancing its technology, streamlining its processes, and expanding its partnerships.

“The first focus of Flexter has been to build the technology that can work with the big players and permit us to tap into the inventory of the big national brands,” Lazaroff said. “Now we plan to expand the supplier base for end users and get all the big companies on board with us.”
