London Beckenham Van Hire
Beckenham is a town in south London. It lies within the London Borough of Bromley and is about ten miles away from the centre of London.
The south London town of Beckenham was for many years a village – it was mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book and remained fairly rural until the coming of the railways made access from London fast and easy. Beckenham gradually grew and a series of large villas were developed in close proximity to the railway station.
One of the more bizarre landmarks in the area is the Chinese Garage - a petrol station built in the style of a Chinese pagoda. Now a listed building, it is no longer a garage but retains its motoring links as part of a car dealership.
Van hire is readily available in the Beckenham area and local van rental companies should provide the following types of van:
- Medium / short wheelbase vans - e.g. Ford Transit, Vauxhall Vivaro, Renault Trafic, Volkswagen Transporter
- Small vans - e.g. Vauxhall Combo, Ford Transit Connect, VW Caddy
- Large / long wheelbase vans - e.g. Mercedes Sprinter XLWB, Ford Transit LWB, Renault Master, LDV Maxus
- Luton vans & box vans (3.5 tonne / 3.5t).
