When is One-way Van Hire Really Worth It?
Long-Distance Move
When you are planning to move quite far away, maybe to another part of the country or even to another country, so the return trip will take time and could be expensive. Fuel and ferry costs can add a lot to your travel costs.
Getting Back Home
If you don't have a car yourself, so you need to arrange transport home from the pick-up branch after dropping the van back. Being able to drop the van to a local branch may be more convenient and could save you both time and money.
All-Day Moves
If your move is likely to take all day and the pick-up branch will be closed before you can drop the van back. Bringing it back the next day could end up costing you double if your rental period exceeds 24h and rolls into a second rental day.
