Rent a van in UK with Europcar
When you need something bigger than an average sized car to get your goods from A to B, we have a whole range of vehicles from trucks to pick-ups so you’re sure to find one perfect for the job.
Transporting large loads, shifting bulky objects, or even moving house, is made easy with Europcar UK truck rental.
With 72 rental stations across the UK we can help wherever you’re travelling to or from, including major cities such as London, Bristol and Manchester. So whether you need to transport a load all the way from John O’Groats to Lands End, or you’re moving house just around the corner, we’ve got the right truck for you to help you on your way.
And because you can drop off your rental truck at a Europcar station close to your destination rather than returning it to where you hired it, your journey is made even easier.
We offer flexible short and long-term rental, so you can be done in a day with our hourly and daily options, or take a bit longer to move your goods with an overnight or month+ option. The choice is yours.
Truck rental from Europcar is great value and convenient, helping you get the job done wherever you need to go and whatever you need to transport.

Are you packing up your whole house? Moving furniture into storage? Transporting bulky items? Whatever the reason, if your load is large and you need a van or truck, look no further. Our extensive range of vehicles offers something to suit all requirements and budgets.
For small loads, choose from compact vans such as the Vauxhall Vivaro or Vauxhall Combo Crewvan. Larger loads may benefit from the extra capacity of a Ford Custom or Citroen Dispatch. And if you’re moving house, you’ll be needing the Mercedes Sprinter with 14m3 of space or even the Iveco Daily with a massive 19m3.

Van driving tips in UK
Driving a van or truck in the UK should be relatively simple once you have got used to the larger size of the vehicle. Take a few minutes when you first get in to familiarise yourself with the layout and controls so you are prepared for the journey. Here are a few tips:
- UK residents require a category B driving licence to drive vans with a limit of 8 passengers. The driver must also have held a full driving licence for a minimum of 12 months – be sure to visit uk to check your eligibility to drive.
- Remember that in the UK vehicles are driven on the left hand side.
- Peak times in towns and cities can be extremely busy so try to plan your journey around the rush hour if possible – it could help make your journey much quicker!
- Plan your route in advance – rural roads in the UK can be narrow and some are unsuitable for large vehicles
- Be aware of the height of the vehicle and check it will fit under any structures such as low bridges or car park entrances.
- A large truck may need a bit more space for turning than you’re used to – make sure you allow for this when parking and manoeuvring.
- If you run into trouble, you can dial 112 from anywhere in Europe and an operator will connect you to an emergency service in the country you're visiting.
Once you’re prepared and all loaded up you can be on your way and enjoying the trip in your rental van.
