Rare on short-term hire

Curtain-side Lutons are hard to find on short-term hire. Most big hire firms only offer them through corporate accounts. Ours is available by the day, with the curtains, the tail lift and the full Luton box.

How hiring works

  1. Get a price

    Pick a van and your dates and we come back to you with a price. Confirm it and pay the deposit.

  2. Collect, or we deliver

    Collect from our yard on Leagrave Road, day or night, or we bring the van to you. We walk round it with you before you set off.

  3. Bring it back

    Return it with the same fuel, or we collect it from you. We check it over together and refund your deposit straight away.

Before you book

Can I drive it on my car licence?

Yes, if you hold a full category B licence. Category B covers vehicles up to 3,500 kg maximum authorised mass, and every van we hire, Lutons included, is 3.5 tonnes or less.

Do I need my own insurance?

If you have your own van hire insurance, you can drive any of our vans, and extra drivers on your policy cost nothing more. [Client to confirm whether we can arrange cover for customers without their own.]

What do I need to bring?

Your photocard driving licence, a DVLA check code (from gov.uk, valid for 21 days), proof of address dated in the last three months, your insurance details and a debit or credit card in your name.

Is it manual or automatic?

Both, depending on availability. Tell us if you need an automatic and we’ll do our best to find one.

How much is the deposit?

Your deposit is refunded straight away when the van comes back as it went out. [Deposit amount, client to confirm.]

Ready when you are

Tell us the van and your dates and we’ll come back to you fast. Open 24 hours, with urgent vans usually ready within the hour.
