Top Tips for hiring a van in Iowa City

  • Iowa City Cargo Van Rentals are a great way to move your items conveniently, safely, and affordably. With a rented cargo van in Iowa City, you can move furniture, equipment, and other heavy appliances on your own schedule. The enclosed cargo space provides protection from the weather, while cargo vans are much easier to operate than larger semi-trucks - making Iowa City Cargo Van Rentals a great choice for your needs.
  • If you are arriving in Iowa City by plane, you may want to pick up your Iowa City Cargo Van Rentals directly at the Cedar Rapids Municipal Airport (CID). There are plenty of rental agencies located directly at the airport near baggage claim - including Alamo Avis, and Budget. However, if you choose to pick up your rentals here, be sure to reserve your vehicle far enough in advance, as this is one of the busiest car rental centers in the area.
  • Iowa City, Iowa is located just south of Cedar Rapids close to the border of Illinois. Because of its northern location, Iowa City experiences severe winter weather from time to time. Keep this in mind if you are hiring Iowa City Cargo Van Rentals during winter, as the size and weight of these vehicles can affect maneuverability especially when snow and ice are on the road.
  • Iowa City, like many other cities, experiences rush hours that could present difficulties when navigating through town with your cargo van. You may want to avoid Highway 6, Highway 218, and Highway 1 between the hours of 7 am and 9 am and again between the hours of 5 pm and 7 pm to avoid getting stuck in traffic as people commute to and from work.

FAQs About Hiring a Van in Iowa City

  • Where can I park my Iowa City Cargo Van Rentals?

    Sometimes it can be difficult to find suitable parking for cargo vans as they are generally larger than normal vehicles. Street parking unfortunately may be out of the question, so look for public parking lots and garages that allow oversized vehicles. There is a large concentration of these downtown. Just be aware of any height restrictions before entering any kind of covered parking. You may also utilize the unreserved spaces at large supermarkets or shopping centers. In addition, if you are staying at a hotel in Iowa City, you may be able to use the parking at the hotel for no charge.

  • What is the best neighborhood to rent a cargo van in Iowa City?

    The downtown area of Iowa City has the largest number of rental car offices where you can find rental cargo vans. This area is also well-connected to the rest of the city, so it can be a convenient pickup and drop-off location. You will also find plenty of rental options near University Heights, as families often need cargo vans to move their students into and out of the University of Iowa during the school year.

  • Can I drive to other states, regions, or countries with my Iowa City cargo van rental?

    Yes, many agencies renting cargo vans in Iowa City will allow you to drive to other states and regions. However, if you plan to drive a long distance and drop the van off at a different branch from where you picked it up, let your preferred agency know that you will be utilizing a one-way rental. This may incur extra fees. Some agencies may also allow you to drive into Canada, but this may incur extra paperwork, insurance coverage, and fees, as well. Always check with your rental provider before leaving the state or the country in Iowa City Cargo Van Rentals.

  • How does KAYAK find such low van hire prices?

    KAYAK compares van hire prices from all major car hire companies such as Thrifty, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, Payless and more to find you the best deal.

Pros:

Super easy pick up and drop off.

Cons:

My vehicle was clearly used by a family before us. When gathering our personal items we found old chips and toys shoved under the seats. Not to big of a deal. But thought it should be mentioned.

The car itself was fine for what we needed but we paid double what we were quoted due to undisclosed fees. Overall, won't be doing it again.

Avis left before I arrived at 1130. I called Hotwire and they said they talked to Avis people next day at location, but impossible because they were closed. So I got gouged by Hertz. Will never use Hotwire, Kayak or Avis again
