Top Reasons to hire a van one way

When you are looking to make a van hire on the Gold Coast to move your gear to a new location one aspect that many people dread is the hassle and expense of having to return the van to the original location after you have dropped your cargo. A very cost effective solution that also saves a lot of time is to consider a one way rental deal where you drop the van off to a prearranged drop off point near your destination. Then there is no need to return it to its original depot. The cost of doing this is usually much less than the cost of the return trip and the cost of then returning to your new place.

Check Around
 
Many companies will not allow you to do this, but it is well worth your time calling around the different companies to find a company that either has a one way policy or needs a van returned to a location near where you’re moving to and wants to make a deal.

Call up a moving company and get a price on moving all of your home or office contents to the new location and you will have a basic idea of the costs involved as a starting point. Then see what the cost of doing it yourself is for your cross country or interstate move.

Taking a one way rental can not only save a lot of travel time it can be very cost effective as you don’t need to pay the extra fuel, mileage and insurance of returning an empty van.

You don’t need to go to all the different hire companies, just contact them online or visit a van hire company on the Gold Coast and ask them if they can help you find a one way rental deal for your destination.

You still need to pay a basis security deposit, insurance and the cost of the expected mileage as well as a booking fee. One good idea to help with reducing the risk and worry is ask for a roadside assist cover during your trip.

Look at all your insurance covers such as household and the cover that often comes if you use your credit card to pay for your van hire on the Gold Coast to see if you’re covered for things like accidents and roadside assist.

Be an Early Bird

It’s best to start looking early to find the right deal and be flexible in your travel times. Do not leave it until the last minute to void being disappointed and finding there are no one way rentals available at the time you want a van and need to travel.

Once you have made your booking it will be a much less stressful trip, all you need to do is carefully pack your cargo in and enjoy the trip to your new life’s adventure with the peace of mind you don’t need to worry about the return trip.

Taking a van hire on the Gold Coast can be a stressful endeavor if not carefully planned and the added hassles of returning the van to the original depot, so a one way rental can be a very cost and time effective solution for your move.
