Small Van Hire

A small van is one of the most practical vehicles you can hire. Compact enough to park in a standard car parking space, nimble enough to navigate city streets, and capable of carrying loads that simply will not fit in the boot of a car — a small hire van is the answer to a wide range of everyday carrying challenges that are too big for a car and too small to justify a full-size panel van.

RentWith's small van hire service covers the UK from hundreds of locations, with same-day or next-day collection available at most. Our small van fleet includes popular models such as the Ford Fiesta Van, Vauxhall Corsa Van, Citroën Berlingo, Volkswagen Caddy, and Peugeot Partner. These vehicles combine a compact external footprint with a surprisingly useful load area — most offer a load volume of two to three cubic metres and a payload of between five hundred and eight hundred kilograms.

For city use, the advantages of a small hire van are considerable. Unlike a medium or large panel van, a compact van fits comfortably in standard parking spaces, including multi-storey car parks and height-restricted underground car parks. You can drive it on any road you would use your own car on, manoeuvre in tight spaces without difficulty, and park without occupying a double bay. If you are collecting large items from a furniture store, IKEA, or a trade counter, a small van makes the job straightforward without the stress of navigating a large vehicle through busy urban areas.

Small vans are also excellent for business use. Couriers, sole traders, and small businesses that need to make regular deliveries or transport equipment and tools find that a compact van strikes the right balance between practicality and ease of driving. The fuel economy of small vans is also superior to their larger counterparts, making them an economical choice for high-mileage commercial use.

Personal use is equally well served. Whether you are helping a friend move a sofa, collecting flat-pack furniture, bringing back holiday equipment from a storage unit, or transporting a large item bought at auction, a small hire van for the day or the weekend handles the task efficiently. Half-day hire is available at many locations if you only need the van for a few hours.

All our small hire vans are clean, well-maintained, and come with comprehensive insurance. Drivers under 25 may hire small vans at many of our locations — call our team to confirm the options available to you. To arrange small van hire, call 0333 210 0162.
