FOR VEHICLE HIRE AND LEASING

Know when a local operator applies to run more vehicles, while hire can still bridge the gap.

Most hire and leasing teams hear about fleet growth when the customer rings, which means the decision is already half made. The public application usually comes first, and almost nobody reads it.

What Harrier watches

The official applications, read as they publish

Every goods vehicle operator needs a licence saying how many vehicles it may run and from which sites, and it must apply publicly before it grows. The Traffic Commissioner publishes every application and decision. Official guidance tells operators to apply at least nine weeks before they need the extra vehicles, though interim authority can shorten that. We read each publication as it appears and keep the events that fit your territory and your trade. Where every fact comes from.

What an alert looks like

Why this is different

Checked, clean and on the record

Verified before it sends

Every alert names a verified limited company, checked before it sends.

No personal data in any alert

No names, no personal contact details, business premises addresses only. Your own marketing duties still apply, and the alert is built to make them easy.

A dated history behind every claim

We keep yesterday's state on record, so a change like a fall from 5 to 2 is our documented record, not a guess.

Questions

Asked before you ask

Does an application mean they will hire or buy?

No, and we never claim it does. An application may signal planned capacity. It does not prove vehicles are ordered or that supplier choices remain open. What it gives you is timing.

Where does the data come from?

Every alert is built from the Traffic Commissioner's official publications, with a link to the official record so you can check it in one click.

What area does it cover?

Coverage is England, Scotland and Wales, goods vehicles first. You choose the territory that matches the ground you actually serve.

Is this compliant to use for sales?

Alerts contain no personal data, name businesses rather than people, and use business premises addresses only. Your own marketing duties still apply, and the alerts are built to make meeting them easy.

What does it cost?

Prices are published when checkout opens, and founding subscribers hear the numbers first. Nothing on this site quotes a price because none is live yet.
