Anyone know where I can get a cheap VAN hire to pick up some 2meter X 2meter patio doors
Location Juntion 4 M25 :lipsrsealed:
-
google mod/europcar. About £35 with discount for the day iirc
-
Normally about £200 for the deposit you get returned.
I'll phone my new insurance company tomorrow and see if drive other vehicle cover will cover my dads van. I'm not far.
-
What size would I need I'm think off a VAUXHALL VIVARO 6sqMeters?
2MX2M 4 sq meters? That sounds about right yeah?
£41.00 for the day?
Bellend get a price mate its 14 miles from my yard to destination petts wood, kent Junc 6 to Jnc 4 and back so roughly 28miles round trip!
:cool:
-
28 miles? Surely someone down your local will be more than willing to drive 14 miles to pick summit up for a few beers?
-
All of my friends have empty vans lol mines full up lol !!
You must have a few friends who owe you a favour?
-
I do and left messages, but like you say its only 14 miles so its a back up plan to see if I can get a cheap van for a few hours, plus its big glass so want it packed in safely. Most of my boys have HGV trucks with scafolding poles and massive diggers on them :lipsrsealed:
-
Glass is easy to transport, my old man has a window company and the sh!t in the vans is unbelievable but I have never cracked a pane when loading. All you need is a dust sheet and a rope. It will only crack on the corners normally too to a quick sweep and even pressure and your alllllll good.
-
my mate paid £40 for the day 2 weeks ago not a bad price keep ringing your mates :laugh:
-
Normally about £200 for the day.

either you're just making things up again for sh!ts and giggles or you're being ass raped when you go to hire vans! :huh:

also... don't B&Q do van rental for about £15/hour?
-
2x2m pane of glass? You may struggle carrying it upright, but should go diagonally if the van is high enough, though you'll need to pack and support it extremely well.
-
best quote so far euro car hire £39 monday to thrusday!
Frame is 2x2 doors are probly 1m each which can be taken off hopefully!

it could run longer Guy at 15 per hour three hours £45 odd plus nearest BQ is 10 miles and parking the daily might be grief?

One of my lads just rang he has long wheel base merc doing nothing on Thursday will come down to get it sorted for me!
Fantastic wife will be happy god damit! :laugh:
-
should be ok in a sprinter.. for glass. get some cardboard boxes down on the floor, put one pane down cardboad box inbetween and then something to weigh them down, ratchets are good if you have loading hooks..
-
