Hooksett, NH— Merchants Leasing, an expert in providing nationwide total fleet solutions to meet commercial and government leasing needs, announced that Cathy Boyd, Purchasing Agent for the Municipality of Penn Hills, Penn., is the winner of a Garmintm Street Pilot GPS.

A unique feature of the Merchants fleet management services is its No Risk closed-end lease option that eliminates the volatility and uncertainty about the residual value of a vehicle at lease-end. When the lease term ends, a customer simply returns the vehicle and owes nothing—regardless of current market value for the vehicle. The Merchants total fleet solution includes professional insurance and maintenance programs, fuel cards to manage mileage and gasoline expenses, local and nationwide delivery, and expert fleet management and administration services. Merchants Leasing offers a variety of lease vehicles including cars, trucks and vans, law enforcement vehicles, handicap-equipped vehicles and more.
