Why Choose Our Van Hire Service
We’re a successful third-generation family business and, after starting out in New Cross, we’ve brought our van hire experience to Croydon. Our family business has been operating since the 1950s and, during all that time, we’ve learned a thing or two about keeping customers happy and staying ahead of the competition. Here are some of the things that set us apart:
No Deposit Options
We care about you’re your cashflow. Just like when we were Ace Rent a Van, we won’t require a deposit unless you opt for our deposit option saving yourself £10/day!
No credit checks
You don’t need to fill out lots of unnecessary paperwork just because you want to hire one of our vans. Hiring from us is quick, simple, and hassle-free – just the way hiring a van should be.
Fixed prices
You’ll know exactly how much you’ll pay when hiring a van from us because our prices stay the same. There are no hidden seasonal or peak charges to worry about.
Loyalty scheme
You earn credit every time you hire from us and after five hires you can put it towards your next van. Depending on the amount you’ve earned, it may even be free.
One-day weekend hire
You aren’t forced to hire a van for longer than your need. We we’re open on Sundays so that you can hire a van when you need one.
Low insurance excess

You can return your van whenever you need to – you don’t have to worry about sticking to our opening hours. Simply follow the instructions that we’ll provide when you come in to collect your van.

Or if you’d prefer, you can book online and we’ll call you back to confirm.
What You Need to Hire a Van
The hiring process is simple and straightforward.
You just need to provide the following four items when collecting your van:
A valid UK or EU driving licence
It’s obvious but it’s still easy to forget. Your licence needs to have been valid for at least two years and if you have an EU licence or a UK paper licence rather than a photocard you’ll need to bring additional photo ID.
Proof of current UK address
This doesn’t have to match the address on your licence, it just needs to be something official like a recent utility bill, bank statement, or a letter from HMRC. You can show us physical or digital proof and it’s best if it’s from the last three months. If you are an EU licence holder, you’ll need to be a UK resident.
A licence
check code
If you have a UK licence you’ll need to generate a licence check code so that we can view your driving record. You can do this online by supplying some details on the gov.uk site.
A debit or
credit card
We don’t accept cash so you’ll need to have a card that you can use for payment. You’ll be asked for payment when we call you back to confirm your booking so it’s helpful to have your card details to hand.
