Hertz UK is partnering with the British Chambers of Commerce to provide members of six participating Chambers with access to its business solutions - including discounts on rental - for a six-month promotional period.

Many small to medium sized businesses are challenged with managing fluctuating outgoings in an unpredictable economic environment. The Hertz Business First Account is a full service solution that provides fixed and preferential rental rates on periods less than 28 days – with car hire starting from £15 per day.

The service includes personalised account management, the option for delivery and collection, staff benefits programme, ability to collect Nectar points, and other business rewards.

For businesses whose vehicle hire needs change from month to month, the Hertz 28+ Plan offers a flexible alternative to leasing or contract hire with Chambers members qualifying for a 35% discount on a wide range of cars and vans.

Rates include free delivery and collection, 24 hour recovery and breakdown assistance, a minimum of 2,000 free miles per month, free monthly valet service and dedicated account management.

There are no upfront payments or finance charges.

Customers signing up to the Hertz 28+ Plan will qualify for 5,000 Nectar points.

Neil Cunningham (pictured), general manager for Hertz UK & Europe Off Airport, said: "We are delighted to partner with the British Chambers of Commerce to support owners of small to medium sized businesses. We share the Chambers’ commitment to providing companies with practical support and access to new ideas and innovations – especially at a time when managing costs and ensuring flexibility are more important than ever.”

Karina Knudsen, head of business development at the British Chambers of Commerce, said: "We are pleased to be launching new exclusive discounted services from Hertz which will give Chambers’ members a helping hand during these difficult economic times.”

Participating Chambers are: Suffolk, Surrey, Ayrshire, Birmingham, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire.

The special Hertz promotion is available until May 31, 2013.
