Why quartisanes

What a considered
service looks like.

The differences between vehicle hire options in Singapore are not always obvious from the outside. Here is what we do differently — and why it tends to matter once you're actually using the service.

At a glance

Small, maintained fleet

Fewer vehicles mean each one receives proper attention. Our cars are inspected before every hire, not just serviced on a calendar schedule.

Delivery to your address

We bring the vehicle to you. No depot collection, no queues, no waiting in an airport car park. The keys are handed over at your door.

Stated prices, no surprises

Every arrangement has a price agreed in writing before it begins. Insurance, navigation, and support are included — they are not upsells.

Comprehensive coverage included

Insurance is built into every hire arrangement. You are not asked to purchase coverage separately or decide between tiers at collection.

Reachable support during every hire

A team member is contactable during all active hires. You are not routed through a call centre or sent to a generic helpline.

Variety without ownership

The weekly rotation allows you to drive different vehicle types over time. Preferences are noted and carried forward automatically.

The detail behind each difference

Experience in transport coordination

The team behind quartisanes has over two decades of experience managing corporate vehicle logistics across Singapore and Southeast Asia. This background informs how we handle timing, communication, and contingencies — not just how we present our service. When you need a vehicle at a particular time for a particular reason, we understand that the timing is not approximate.

  • 22 years of combined transport logistics experience
  • Deep familiarity with Singapore road conditions and timing
  • Occasion-based experience: corporate events, dinners, milestone celebrations

A process designed around your time

Most vehicle hire processes are designed around the provider's convenience — you collect, you return, you wait. quartisanes inverts this: delivery and collection happen at your address, and the administrative steps (licence verification, hire agreement) are handled by photo submission before the vehicle arrives. By the time the driver appears at your door, there is nothing left to sign or confirm.

  • Documentation submitted in advance by photo — no paperwork at collection
  • Vehicles delivered and collected at your location throughout Singapore
  • Most enquiries confirmed within one working day

Equipped for Singapore's roads

Navigation is included as standard — not because it is a selling point, but because a vehicle without it is incomplete for use in an unfamiliar area. Our vehicles are also configured for Singapore's road systems including IU (In-Vehicle Unit) for ERP gantries. Roadside assistance is available around the clock throughout your hire period.

  • Navigation systems included in all vehicles
  • IU units fitted for Singapore ERP gantries
  • 24-hour roadside assistance throughout hire period

Service that doesn't require chasing

We aim to respond to all communications within a few hours during business hours. Extensions, changes to collection time, and special requests for occasion-based services are handled by the same person you first spoke with — not escalated to a different team or department. If something needs adjusting, you won't have to explain the context twice.

  • Direct contact with the team managing your arrangement
  • No call centres or automated response queues
  • Flexible adjustments to arrangements where possible

A track record built quietly

quartisanes has been operating since 2019. We have completed over 1,400 individual hire arrangements without a missed delivery. Our client retention rate — the proportion of clients who return for a second arrangement — sits above 70%. We don't advertise these numbers aggressively, but we're willing to share them when asked.

  • 1,400+ completed hire arrangements since 2019
  • Zero missed deliveries on confirmed bookings
  • Over 70% of clients return for a second arrangement
· · ·

Pricing that reflects what's included

Our prices are higher than the lowest-cost alternatives in Singapore. They include insurance, navigation, delivery, roadside support, and — for occasion-based arrangements — driver briefing and vehicle preparation. When these elements are priced separately elsewhere, the comparison tends to even out. We prefer to state a single complete price rather than show a lower figure and add components later.

  • Single all-inclusive price per arrangement
  • No supplementary charges added after confirmation
  • Pricing available via enquiry; tailored quotes for multi-vehicle arrangements

What you won't find elsewhere

The weekly rotation arrangement

A month-to-month weekly programme where a different vehicle is delivered to your home each week. Sedans, SUVs, and coupés in rotation, based on your stated preferences. No commitment beyond the current week. We know of no other provider in Singapore offering this arrangement.

· · ·

Retirement dinner coordination

A vehicle arrangement designed specifically for career milestone celebrations. The lead vehicle is prepared with a congratulatory card and the guest's preferred beverage. Drivers are briefed on the occasion and its tone. Return transfers are included. This service exists because we were asked to create it by a client in 2021, and it has since become one of our most valued arrangements.

· · ·

No minimum hire periods beyond the arrangement type

Each of our services is priced for its natural duration. The afternoon hire is up to six hours. The weekly rotation is seven days. There are no minimum booking windows, no penalty rates for returning a vehicle early, and no pressure to book multiple arrangements in advance.
