Europcar opens new van hire branch in Bristol

The new Europcar Bristol South branch provides an ideal location for customers to get on the road quickly and cost-effectively, open from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday and 8am to 1pm on Saturdays.

The opening of the branch will initially create roles in customer service, fleet management and driver representatives, and will be the 6th Europcar rental location in Bristol.

Bristol is a thriving business centre, as well as a great starting point for holidaymakers heading to Wales and the South West”, said Ken McCall, Managing Director, Europcar UK Group.  “It therefore made sense for us to expand our branch network to include a location in the South of Bristol”.

With free drop-off and collection, Europcar customers can step off the train at Bristol South and get straight into their hire vehicle, with the minimum of delays. This new branch is another example of our focus on keeping our customers on the move, with greater vehicle choice and more locations than ever.”

Europcar targets corporate market with fleet van rental centres

Europcar Chapter 8 van

Corporate hire plays a big role in the van rental business, as you’d expect.

Many companies now run part-rental or even 100% rental fleets, enabling them to add or subtract vans to meet demand, without committing to finance or long-term leases.

Europcar has now joined Hertz in opening a number of corporate rental van supersites around the UK.

Located in Newcastle, Leeds, Birmingham, London and Bristol, Europcar’s Van Supersites create a network running down the spine of the UK.

Each supersite offers a range of vehicles targeting the fleet market, including crew cab vans, 4×4 pick-ups and a comprehensive range of Chapter 8 vehicles (vans with reflective markings required is the vehicle will stop on a main road for work purpose, such as road works — see picture for an example).

Europcar’s Ken McCall says that the firm’s goal is to playing its role in the UK’s economic recovery:

“The launch of Europcar’s Van Supersites is part of our commitment to helping UK businesses that are making the most of an increasingly positive economy.”

“By having a dedicated focus on a range of commercial vehicles – combined with specialist account management – these Supersites mean we can deliver both efficiency and cost savings to the businesses that need the confidence of supply for their own continuity”

Europcar’s network of Van Supersites will run alongside the firm’s existing 170-strong branch network, which serves the needs of retail and corporate customers.

Europcar will promote its partnership with Arsenal in a large number of territories around the world including South Africa, USA, selected countries in Asia and Latin America, and throughout Europe.

The company’s marketing rights include significant branding presence at Emirates Stadium, and throughout Arsenal FC’s online and social media channels.

The significant international reach the Club can provide for the global rental provider is also a key factor in the partnership.  As well as the 3 million people that attend matches and events at Emirates Stadium each year, Arsenal has 27.4 million fans on Facebook and 4.2 million followers on twitter.

“This is a tremendously exciting partnership for Europcar”, explained Ken McCall, Managing Director, Europcar UK Group.  “It gives us fantastic branding opportunities in the UK, and also reaching millions of football fans who follow the Premier League throughout the world.  As well as promoting the Europcar global brand message, ‘Moving your way’, the partnership also gives us access to the Arsenal players and imagery for our own promotional activity.

“As the official car and van rental partner of Arsenal FC, we can help fans travelling to away games with convenient and cost-effective mobility solutions, as well as bring the benefits of our comprehensive range of services tailored to the needs of business and leisure users. We are confident that this relationship will enable us to significantly increase reservations as well as raise the bar on our engagement with both consumer and business customers.”

Europcar van hire

Hire a van with Europcar from just £14.50 per day

According to the Met Office, winter ends in 7 days, on the 28th February.

Personally, I think it’s a little early for spring cleaning, but with the housing market taking off and mild weather making gardening a reality, tips to the tip and DIY removals are definitely the order of the day.

To help you get things off to a flying start, Europcar is running a special spring offer:

THIS OFFER HAS NOW EXPIRED

Most cars aren’t really suitable for jobs like this, and using a hire van instead can take the strain off your car and prevent you having to make multiple trips and protect the inside of your car from scratches, dirt and damage. Although driving a van is a little different to driving a car, modern vans are quite easy to drive, here at vanrental.co.uk, we’ve put together these tips to help you get started.

Commenting on the offer, Ken McCall, Managing Director, Europcar UK Group, said:

“Removing clutter that’s been taking up precious space is a liberating experience and there is no better time to do this than during the traditional ‘spring clean’ period. With van hire from as little as £14.50 per day, hopefully that will provide families with the motivation needed to have a clear out and make a fresh start for spring.  And, because driving a van is different from driving a car, we offer advice to customers to help them stay safe, both on our website and when they pick up the vehicle.”

Europcar has over 200 locations across the UK, including a presence at all major UK airports, with many branches open 24 hours a day. The firm’s fleet contains a wide range of vans, and all popular van sizes are available, including Iveco Daily and Ford Transit panel vans, right up to bigger luton box vans. All Europcar vans are fully maintained to manufacturer specifications, and are covered by 24 hour breakdown, for added peace of mind.

The new Europcar Mobility Centre at ExCeL London offers car and van hire, as well as chauffeur, valet and bus transfer services.

Europcar has wasted no time in opening its first Mobility Centre at ExCeL London.

“Innovation is central to everything Europcar does, and this is the perfect example of what two leaders in their field can achieve by working in partnership. But this is just the beginning. With over 5 million visitors in 2012, across its 100,000 sqm site, ExCeL is London’s biggest venue and as Europe’s largest rental provider, we believe Europcar is the perfect partner.”

In addition to hiring vans at ExCeL London, exhibitors and suppliers can also hire vans from Europcar’s nationwide network for their trip to ExCeL, benefiting from hourly and one-way rentals, as well as delivery and collection services.

Located on ExCeL’s main boulevard, the Europcar Mobility Centre will serve the needs of exhibition visitors, exhibitors, the campus residents and employees, hotel guests and the immediate wider business and consumer communities.
