Those who buy cars need them in all shapes and sizes, so those that hire them do too, which is why our selection of hire cars is so vast.

Each car has a fuel-efficient engine, saving you money, and giving you peace of mind when you trust Rent Direct for car hire in Cambridge. 

Van hire Cambridge

Vans large and small are available to hire from us here at Rent Direct, whether you need a small Ford Transit Connect style van for a swift, small move, to a larger Volkswagen Crafter or Luton van (complete with tail lift).

Each of our vans is ply lined, with exposed points with which you can secure your load. We know you’ve probably got a lot of other things going on, so it’s our pleasure to make van rental in Cambridgeshire super simple.

FAQs

Do I need to arrange my own insurance?

Yes, this is certainly possible - we’d suggest discussing your needs with our team. 

Will the vehicle come with fuel in the tank?

All our vehicles leave Rent Direct with a full tank of fuel at the start of the rental period. There’s an expectation that customers must return it with a full tank at the end of the hire agreement.

Can I use one of your vehicles abroad? 

No, you are not permitted to take our vehicles off mainland UK.

We have car-derived vans, short wheelbase vans, medium wheelbase vans, long wheelbase vans, and Luton vans.
