Your fleet manager can tell you when the vehicle lease ends. Otherwise, if your employer has arranged a direct driver communication service with us, you can ask your LeasePlan customer account manager.
Please ask your fleet manager.
You or a person authorised by your fleet manager inspect the vehicle with the forwarding agent that picks the vehicle up. Then both persons sign the vehicle return document and our forwarding agent takes the vehicle to a logistics centre where it is inspected by an independent appraiser.
Always ensure that you return all accessories with the vehicle. That includes original keys, summer tyres, the vehicle registration certificate I and service booklet. Please remove all personal items from the car before you return it. When returning the vehicle, cancel the fuel card(s) by cutting into the magnetic strip.
