Abacus News and Tips

The Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ)

To help improve air quality, an Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) will be in place in central London from the 8th April 2019, in the same area as the Congestion Charge. Vehicles will need to meet a new, tighter exhaust emission standard or be liable for a daily charge to drive within the ULEZ area.

To ensure we allocate the right vehicle to you, It is vitally important that you let us know if you are going in to London. Please check our FAQ's for further details.
When you or your driver comes to collect the vehicle, we will need to see the following:
- Driving licence and DVLA licence check code or NI number
- Credit or Debit card for the security deposit
- Additional ID
For further information please visit our FAQs or read "What to bring when collecting your vehicle:" on our emails.

MWB Hi-Top

I rented the Vauxhall Boxer from Abacus in Ferndown, admittely I made an error on the booking but the staff were more than happy to correct it for me.

The van itself was clean, had a supply of bin bags in, in case I needed them and was well looked after. Dents from previous drivers were clearly marked on the sign-out sheet and despite never having driven a van of this size before handled well on a day run to Honiton and back. On board sat nav was updated and useful and overall was very impressed with the vehicle and customer service.

Motorhomes Hire

Abacus provides Cars, Vans, Trucks, Minibuses, MPVs & Motorhomes for hire. We are a family owned and run business which has been trading for 30 years.

The company now operates 650 vehicles which cover a wider and more diverse range than most other rental companies.

We operate from two “super” depots located in Ferndown near the Dorset/Hampshire border and in Andover, Hampshire which benefits from being on/near the main arterial road network for the South of England.

We continue to provide the best service from the best premises with the best facilities in the industry, which I hope reflects on the standard of vehicle and customer service we strive to provide.

What Our Customers Say

Abacus go that extra mile to cater for their customer’s needs and requirements—from all the team at AFC Bournemouth, thank you Abacus. We cannot thank them enough for their support, this has been priceless within our programme here at AFC Bournemouth.

Micky Clayton

Head of Pre Academy AFC Bournemouth
I've been hiring your vans regularly for three years to move building materials and all our belongings to our renovation project in Brittany. All of the vehicles have been of an excellent standard and are fun to drive, the service is always efficient and helpful at Andover. I am particularly impressed with the organisation of the collection, drop off and administration areas and assume this is backed up by a great vehicle maintenance and preparation team. The ability to collect vehicles on the evening before hire period and drop off early the day after hire has made the costs great value too. I'm now moving permanently to France and so want to pass on my thanks to the whole team at Abacus.

Andy Crabtree

Customer
Abacus have supplied our rental vehicles for many years and we wouldn’t want to work with anyone else. The team are efficient and professional and their fleet of vehicles updated regularly. They offer superb, flexible service with a very friendly approach.

Frances Bawden

Head of Operations
Abacus have been one of our suppliers for many years. They will always pull together and help when we urgently need that extra truck to cope with increasing demand or when we just need a replacement. The team offer quality equipment and service without compromise.
