There are many businesses that require the use of commercial vehicles. A lot of them buy their own vehicles and use them for three or four years before trading them in and buying new. It is an expensive process and makes the overheads of operating the business higher than they need to be in many cases. This is why, at T G Commercials Self Drive, we are finding more and more people coming to us to hire their vehicles long-term rather than buy them.

However, many people in the UK do not use commercial vehicles but buy the family car. In a lot of cases, families have more than one car. According to the RAC Foundation, at the end of March this year there were 33.73 million cars licensed in the UK. 34% of households had two or more cars.

That’s all well and good, but there are occasions for many families when they need the use of a van for moving some goods around. They need to transport things that simply won’t fit into the family car, and the answer is obviously weekend van hire. They can use it at the weekend to do whatever is needed and take it back on Sunday night or Monday morning. At T G Commercials Self Drive we can accommodate you with whatever you need.

Moving Home

For instance, you might have a friend who is moving home, or you may be moving home yourself, and you don’t want to pay the huge costs of a removal firm. If you can get a couple of family members or friends to help you, then you can do it yourself and save a small fortune. Then the only cost you have got is the cost of the van for a couple of days – and, no doubt, the cost of taking the helpers out for a slap-up meal when the job is done!

You could be remodeling your garden. So, you have ordered a lot of stuff from the garden centre which you now need to collect. Perhaps bags of sand, rocks, soil, a couple of small trees and other plants, and those are not going to fit in the back of your Renault Clio – or for that matter your Range Rover either!

Our weekend van hire is the answer. Pick it up on Friday night or Saturday morning. Run back and forth to the garden centre to get everything back home, and then return it to us on Monday.
