Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about how VS1 Cloud Hire works? We’ve got you covered 👇

Is VS1 Hire for short-term or long-term rentals?

Both. VS1 Hire handles quick day-rate hires, long-term contracts and everything in between.

Does it integrate with VS1 Accounts and other modules?

Yes. Every hire, charge, bond, damage cost and repair flows straight into VS1 Accounts, Inventory and Repairs & Servicing. No double entry — just one live dataset across your business.

Can our drivers and yard staff use it on mobile?

They can. Use the VS1 mobile app to check items in and out, capture signatures, upload photos, update condition reports and log deliveries or pickups while on the road or in the yard.

Does it support accessories, kits and bundled hires?

Absolutely. Link required accessories and safety items to main hire assets so they’re automatically included on bookings, pick lists and invoices — reducing missed items and unbilled gear.
