Commercial van: the solution to cover everything!
Are you moving or do you want to transport bulky equipment? Using your own car to save money is not a good idea. You may actually damage the interior of your vehicle and ultimately spend more, especially if you make several round trips. Renting a commercial van is the ideal option in this case. Whether you choose a van or truck, you’ll have enough room to store anything you want. Some models allow you to easily store up to 100 boxes. Renting a commercial van is therefore ideal for:
Move large or bulky equipment: choose the storage capacity that suits you and move everything you want with your commercial van!
Save money: avoid the expense of employing removalists.
Save time: choose the capacity of a commercial van based on the volume of furniture, boxes or equipment you want to move and do it in a single trip.
Reduce fines: the maximum load allowed and that a commercial van can support is significantly higher than that of a conventional vehicle. By hiring a van for example, you can carry more baggage and avoid a fine in the event of a police vehicle check.
Storage capacity: specify the storage capacity you need, ranging from 3 m3 to 20 m3, and opt for the vehicle that best suits your needs.
Number of seats: choose up to 3 seats in front to enjoy company as the driver during the trip. On long journeys, you can swap drivers to avoid fatigue.
Vehicle type: filter the desired “commercial van” type with search filters available on the results page.
Rental period: specify the rental start and end dates in the search bar. You can choose to rent the vehicle by the day, week or for a long period.
Choose departure and arrival locations: specify the vehicle’s pick up and return location before you start your search. If you want a different return location, select “different return location”. Beware of any additional costs that this may incur.

In some agencies, it is possible to rent a commercial car for a month or more. You should be aware that the payment can be requested all at once when booking the vehicle. Ask about the number of kilometres allowed, if there is a limit per day or on the total duration of the rental.
To rent a commercial van, you'll generally need to be at least 21 years old and have a 1-year driving license. Please note, however, that each rental agency has its own specific rental conditions. We therefore recommend that you check these conditions with your rental company.
The majority of rental agencies require a licence to have been held for at least 2 years in order to rent a commercial van. This is the case with Sixt, for example. Rentacar, however, request 5 years on a licence! These criteria may vary depending on the size of the commercial car, its capacity in number of passengers, and also depending on the country in which you want to rent. So remember to inform the agency of your choice to avoid any unpleasant surprises when picking up of the vehicle.
To rent a commercial van, you will need:
- Your identity card or passport
- Your driving licence
- A credit card in your name
- Proof of address (depending on the agency)
- A telephone number (depending on the agency)
Visa, Mastercard and American Express credit cards are the most commonly accepted by agencies. Before finalising your reservation and to avoid any unpleasant surprises at when picking up the vehicle, check that your card will be accepted by the rental agency.
“Third-party insurance” and “personal injury” coverage are included in commercial van rental contracts in the United States. Other optional insurance will be offered by the rental company to better cover you in case of incidents (repairs on the vehicle, insurance in case of theft, etc.). These additional insurance policies also reduce the excess you may have to pay in the event of an accident.
Be aware that some payment cards (VISA Premier for example) include insurance for your car rental. Check beforehand to avoid accumulating insurance.
