Cheltenham Van Hire

Before you hire your van, we encourage you to check what type of driving licence you have and if it permits you to drive the specific vehicle. Most driving licences allow you to hire a people-mover van, but you should check in advance and contact the hire company if you have any questions. You may need to do extra training courses or hold a superior driving licence to be able to hire the larger vans that are usually used in construction or transportation services, due to the higher liability that comes with these vehicles.

First, you may want to get in touch with your credit card company to see how much of the insurance costs they will cover in your van hire booking. There are a few insurance options to choose from, with varying prices and cover, and it is worth observing that the insurance costs of hiring a van will be more expensive than if you were to hire a car. This is due to the increased liability of driving a larger vehicle.

Most van hire companies are happy for you to use a one-way hire system, but they will demand that you specify the drop-off point. Dropping off in a different place can be hugely convenient for you and any passengers, but it may cost a little more if the destination is far away from the original pickup point.
