Case Study | Chepstow International

When a fleet operator de-fleets up to 30 vehicles a year, they need a clean handover. When it isn’t, the cost quickly adds up, causing days off the road, frustrated drivers and money tied up in vehicles that should already be sold.

Chepstow Platform International (CPI) knew the cost of getting that process wrong. Each year, as their vehicles reach the end of life, their drivers need to move straight into replacements with no operational gaps. That meant finding a partner who could appraise vehicles fairly, remove them promptly and handle the admin without pulling internal teams away from their actual work.

What we did

Vangoo provides end-to-end de-fleet support for CPI on an ongoing basis. Our process is designed to fit around them and be both time and cost efficient:

• On-site appraisal of every vehicle in person
• Fair, market-aligned pricing agreed upfront
• Fast collection arranged around the operational calendar
• Trackers removed, handover completed, paperwork closed

The result

Year after year, Chepstow Platform International transitions drivers into new vehicles without operational disruption. There's no auction window, no phased disposal and no internal admin trail to chase. We make sure payment and collection are both fast and the relationship works because it's built on efficiency and trust.

"We de-fleet up to 30 vehicles a year and Vangoo handles it the same way every time. They come to our site, appraise everything and pay a fair price, then collect quickly and take care of the trackers. It means we move our drivers straight into their new vehicles with no hold-up and we're not left managing it all afterwards. It's become something we rely on year after year.
