Rent a van in Maidstone with Europcar

Flexible short and long term hire, convenient town centre location, plus the option to drop your hire van off at a Europcar station close to your destination if you only want to make a one-way trip. It all adds up to the perfect solution when you need to get something shifted and it won’t fit in your average car. Take a look at our

Moving home in Maidstone
Whether you’re up-sizing, down-sizing or re-locating, moving house can feel over-whelming with so much to plan and think about. Let Europcar take some of the stress with our flexible, hassle-free van rental. And to help you on your way, we’ve put together a couple of handy guides, full of hints and tips for
moving house and
making the best use of space in your van.
Getting your belongings to your destination – whether that be just the other side of Maidstone or all the way to Scotland – needn’t be daunting.
Once you’re all packed up and ready to go, it’s a good idea to take a few minutes to familiarise yourself with your rental van and where all the controls are. If you haven’t driven a van before, don’t be nervous, just remember a few important points:
Be aware of the height of the vehicle if you’ve chosen a tall van and check it will fit under any low bridges or other structures you might encounter on your route.
Check your route in advance and make sure it doesn’t include any roads that are too narrow or unsuitable for large vehicles – you may need to look up an alternative route.
Allow for extra space when parking and manoeuvring a larger vehicle.
Allow extra space for braking when carrying a heavy load.
Remember that rear view visibility won’t be the same as driving a car if there is no rear view mirror or the view is obscured by your load.
However far you’re going, your Europcar rental van will make the journey a breeze.
Small, medium and large van hire
Choosing the right van for the job is important, and we have a range of makes and models so you can select the size that suits you.
For a smaller, nippy option, the VW Caddy is just the job with 3.2m of space and room for one passenger. If you need something a bit bigger, the Ford Transit is a good choice. And the Mercedes Benz Sprinter is the van for you if you’re moving house or have a particularly large load to move.
We are proud to be a global leader in car, van and truck rental. To find out more about the Europcar van hire experience, be sure to visit our
