\"vanrental.co.ukIf you or your parents are planning to book a hire van to help transport your stuff back to uni (or maybe you’re sharing with a friend), you may face availability problems for your chosen dates if you have not already booked.<\/p>\n

Many van hire companies report a surge of demand in August\/early September as the UK’s two million undergraduate students<\/a> all head back to university within a few days of each other.<\/p>\n

Here at vanrental.co.uk<\/a>, we can help by allowing you to compare prices from most of the UK’s major van rental companies in one place (we’ll be adding live prices from more companies very soon, too — watch this space<\/a>).<\/p>\n

You can start comparing van hire prices here<\/a>, or get more information on student van hire and self-storage here<\/a>. If you’re planning on driving yourself, then you made need one-way hire — our comparison system can also compare prices for one-way UK van hire quotes<\/a>, so whatever your requirement, we should be able to help get you started.<\/p>\n

Finally, if you or your co-driver hasn’t driven a van before, then I’d recommend you check out our guide to driving a van for the first time<\/a>, too. It’s short, sweet and packed full of essential tips, based on my many years’ experience of driving a van as my daily drive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
