AA Tyre Fit – the AA’s mobile tyre fitting operation - has won the contract to supply replacement tyres to vehicle rental company easyCar.

The easyCar fleet is operated across 17 locations in the UK and is part of the easyGroup, founded in 2000, that also includes easyJet and easyMoney. Cars currently used include the Mercedes Benz A Class and Vauxhall Meriva.

Richard Clarke, fleet maintenance manager, of easyCar says: “As a daily rental operation, everything we do is geared towards high car utilisation of more than 90% and a vehicle with an unroadworthy tyre is one that is losing us revenue.

“For this reason, mobile tyre fitting provides a genuine advantage. We can simply get the vehicle back on the road more rapidly and at a very competitive price.”
