Fuel Surcharge
To protect against substantial rises in Fuel prices, Personal Class Travel operate a Fuel Surcharge. If the retail price of fuel reaches of exceeds a predetermined price, the distance element of our rates will increase in line with the rise in fuel prices. For 2022, the predetermined price for the fuel surcharge to be activated is £1.47 per litre of diesel
When the retail fuel price hits £1.47, the distance element of our rates will increase by 5%, and then an additional 1% for every 1% increase in the price of fuel. When fuel falls below £1.40, the fuel surcharge will be removed and the distance element of our rates will revert to the price stated above.
Similarly, should the cost of fuel fall substantially, we will reduce our mileage rates, by way of a mileage reductions. For the 2022 the predetermined price for a mileage reduction to be activated is £1.20 per litre of diesel. For every 1% the price drops below £1.20 per litre, we will reduce our mileage rates by 1%. The Mileage reduction will be removed should fuel prices rise back above £1.20 per litre.
For the purposes of the Fuel Surcharge & Mileage Reduction the price of fuel shall be determined by the price of fuel charged by the companies fuel card provider and not local pump prices
Driver Hire
£22.50 per hour
Driver Hire is charged at an hourly rate from the time the driver leaves the company base to the time they return to the company base, plus any costs incurred by the company. Where possible, the company will always attempt to utilise the cheapest method of transporting the driver from the company base to the start point of the hire, and from the end point of the hire back to the company base, but consideration will also be given to the time this would also take. Where the duration of time exceeds more than 15 minutes of an hour, the full hour will be chargeable. Where the company chooses to use a “pool driver” and “pool vehicle” to transport the hired driver the costs incurred shall be a base to base hourly rate for the “pool driver” of £15 per hour, plus mileage at the HMRC rate applicable at the time. Where the start and finish point of the hire are the same place, the costs incurred by the company shall be the mileage from the companies base to the start / finish point of the hire, and back to the companies base at the HMRC rate applicable at the time.
