What do I need to provide before I can drive away?

Your driving licence, front and back, plus two proofs of address dated within the last 3 months. We check these before your booking is fully confirmed.

When is my booking actually confirmed?

Once you have uploaded all your ID and our team has approved it. Until then your dates are held for you but the booking is not final.

Can I pay a deposit now and the rest later?

Yes. At checkout you can pay in full, or pay a deposit now with the balance due by the time you pick the van up.

What happens at pickup and drop off?

At pickup we walk around the van with you, note any existing marks and you sign to confirm. When you bring the van back we check it in, and any new damage is recorded against your hire.
