Moving Van Hire

Moving house is one of the most logistically demanding days in most people's lives, and having the right van makes an enormous difference to how smoothly it goes. RentWith's moving van hire service covers the full spectrum of home sizes — from a studio flat requiring a single trip in a medium panel van, through to a large family home where a Luton box van with a tail lift is the only sensible solution.

Choosing the right van size for a house move is the starting point for a stress-free moving day. As a general guide, a medium van (Transit Custom or equivalent) will handle a studio or small one-bedroom flat in a single trip if your furniture is modest. A large panel van LWB is appropriate for most one and two-bedroom properties, and a Luton box van provides the maximum volume for two and three-bedroom homes. For larger homes, two trips or two vehicles may be needed — call our team and describe your property, and we will give you an honest recommendation.

A tail lift can transform the moving day experience. Carrying heavy items — a sofa, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers, a washing machine — is physically demanding and injury-prone when done by hand. A hydraulic tail lift allows heavy furniture to be loaded and unloaded by one or two people with minimal effort and far less risk of injury or damage. If your move involves several large, heavy pieces of furniture, a Luton van with tail lift is the most practical option regardless of the volume of belongings.

Practical moving accessories are available to hire alongside your van. Sack trolleys and furniture dollies make it far easier to move heavy items across hard floors, and moving blankets protect furniture surfaces and fragile items from bumps and scratches in transit. Let our team know what you need when you book and we will arrange what is available.

One-way hire is available at many of our locations, which is particularly useful if you are moving to a different town or city and do not want to drive back to your collection point to return the van. Please confirm this when booking as availability and any applicable terms vary by route.

Weekday moves are typically easier to arrange at short notice than weekend moves. Bank holiday weekends and month-end Fridays are consistently in high demand, so we recommend booking as far ahead as possible if your move falls on these dates. Call 0333 210 0162 to discuss your move and confirm the right vehicle.
