Van Hire The Havens

What you can hire and how booking works

The range runs from compact city vans up to high-capacity models, so nobody gets pushed into an ill-fitting compromise. Automatic gearboxes sit alongside manuals in the catalogue, which matters if one of your drivers has never got on with a clutch. Specialised vehicles are referenced too, including tail lift vans, Luton vans, camper vans, cherry pickers and Transit-style options. Whether the job lasts a morning or several months, short-term and long-term agreements are both catered for. Once your reservation is complete, you either collect the vehicle or arrange delivery straight to an address that suits you. SDVH operates a broad fleet of hire vans across the UK for business and private customers, with straightforward booking at the centre of it.

Match the vehicle to the job

A Luton with a tail lift is a different animal from a small panel van, so it pays to describe the load before committing. Tell the team what you are moving, how many people are travelling and what access looks like at either end. Narrow driveways, low car park barriers and heavy awkward items all shape the sensible choice. If the size bands feel confusing, a short conversation usually settles it.

Confirm the hire terms

Before signing anything, check the dates, the mileage option, the standard insurance excess and which drivers are named on the agreement. Delivery, one-way hires and European travel all need flagging in advance, since each carries its own arrangements. Asking now prevents surprises at handover.

Prepare a useful enquiry

A good enquiry saves a round of phone calls. Give your preferred collection times, an honest estimate of expected mileage and the main requirements, such as tail lift or load height. Exact model and availability are confirmed when you book, so leave a little flexibility around peak days.
