Rent a van in Glasgow with Europcar
Moving stuff across the city or from Glasgow to elsewhere in the UK is easy with van hire from Europcar Glasgow. We offer simple van rental from a convenient location with
flexible short and long term hire options and no hidden charges.
That bargain purchase that seemed such a good idea but you’ve realised won’t fit in your car, the old furniture you promised your Mum you’d take to the tip, or moving your teenager into new university digs. Whatever you need it for, we have the van to help, with small, medium and large vehicles as well as pick-ups.
Europcar Glasgow Lancefield is conveniently located on the A814, close to the SEC, just two miles from the city centre, and can be reached by a short taxi ride or there is a regular bus service (the number 23).
With van hire so easy, you’ve got no excuse not to get that job done!
Moving home in Glasgow
If you’re hiring a van to move the contents of your whole home rather than just a few items, our
guide to moving house might come in useful, whether you’re an experienced house-mover or this is your first time.
Packing a whole house into a van can seem daunting and it’s important to make sure your precious belongings are stowed safely and securely so you don’t suffer damage and breakages on the way. But following a few simple tips can make the process simple, so we’ve written a handy
packing guide to help.
Driving your rental van in and around Glasgow is simple once you’ve packed it securely. If you’re just moving belongings across the city, be aware of any city centre streets unsuitable for larger vehicles, or obstructions such as low bridges.
If you’re moving further afield, it’s a good idea to plan your route and make sure all roads are suitable for larger vehicles. A few things that may be different from driving a car include longer braking distances when your van is fully loaded, more space required for turning and parking, and less visibility to the rear of the vehicle if there is no rear view mirror or if the rear view is obscured by your load. Once you have taken all this on board, you’re ready to go!
Small, medium and large van hire
The Vauxhall Combo Crewvan is a good compact option if you have a bulky item to transport that’s just too large for a standard family car.
Medium sized options include the VW Caddy, and Ford Custom, while the Ford Transit and Mercedes Benz Sprinter are our larger options for when you have a larger load to shift or you’re moving house.
Or the Toyota Hilux pick-up might be the vehicle for you.
Choose the van that fits your load and then hit the road!
