Not very much. <strong>But one thing you can do is hire a van (or car) for just \u00a31<\/strong> from major hire companies through the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" aria-label=\"driiveme.co.uk website (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.driiveme.co.uk\/p\/MjI5NDk3\" target=\"_blank\">driiveme.co.uk website<\/a>\u21d2*.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>What&#8217;s the catch?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the deal. Big hire companies need to &#8216;rebalance&#8217; their fleets. That means moving cars and vans from one location to another so that they&#8217;re available to hire in the right locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One way to do this is for the companies to pay drivers or vehicle transporters. But that&#8217;s expensive for them and a bit wasteful too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"79\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/driiveme-logo-hd-med-300x79.png\" alt=\"driiveme.co.uk logo\" class=\"wp-image-11571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/driiveme-logo-hd-med-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/driiveme-logo-hd-med-624x165.png 624w, https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/driiveme-logo-hd-med-50x13.png 50w, https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/driiveme-logo-hd-med.png 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The other alternative is to <strong>rent out the vehicles for \u00a31 <\/strong>to customers who want to travel those routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The advantage of this is that it saves a wasted journey &#8212; you want to travel from A to B and the van (or car) needs to be moved from A to B. So it&#8217;s a win-win situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u00a31 charge is only needed to activate the hire vehicle&#8217;s insurance. Apart from that, all you have to pay for is fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously there is a catch: you have to take the car or van between two fixed locations, usually within 24 hours. But if the route works for you, then this can be a brilliant and cheap way to move around the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To find out more, take a look at the <\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.driiveme.co.uk\/p\/MjI5NDk3\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>driiveme.co.uk website<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u21d2* and see what&#8217;s on offer today.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>*driiveme.co.uk website\u21d2<\/em> <em>This is an affiliate link.
