Van Hire Witchford

Decide Who Drives First

Know who is driving before anything else. Extra drivers often need adding when the van is collected, and that decision is harder to change later. Picture a delivery to a yard with a narrow gate. One driver off sick means the whole job stalls. Sort it at the start.

Start With Real Dates

Fix your dates before you enquire. Weekends go quickly, and popular sizes may already be taken. Build in a spare hour either side of the job. A delivery slot that slips by an hour should not cost you the van. Midweek collection is often quieter.

Write the Load List Down

List every item before you ring. Count boxes, measure furniture, note anything long or heavy. Awkward shapes matter more than total weight; a ladder that will not lie flat decides the van. Read the list out when you enquire so nothing gets guessed.

Give Collection Day Room

Collection takes longer than people expect. Allow time for paperwork, a walk-round check and loading. Then think about the route itself. Tight entrances, gates that open inwards and no turning space all slow a delivery down. Book the van for longer than you think you need.
