Large Van Hire in Birmingham in the West Midlands and Torquay in Devon.

Hiring large vans and LWB vans including the Ford Transit LWB, in Torquay, Devon and Birmingham in the West Midlands has never been easier and more affordable. Here at Chief Rental, our Birmingham large van hire or Devon large van hire department will be happy to answer all your questions and make sure you have the right large size van for the right job. Whether you require lwb van rental for moving house or to move your business or transport goods, we have the lwb van rental to fit your needs. Our van fleet guide shows you approximate measurements so you can choose the right sized large wheel based van to carry your load.

Our Long Wheel Base vans or LWB, the Citroen Relay or Ford Transits have an extended wheel base and often come with a higher roof for carrying larger items, available to business users and the general public and suitable for carrying bulky loads, please see our fleet guide for approximate load capacity and vehicle specifications. The Relay offers a pleasant working environment with good forward visibility and split door mirrors with lower sections that can be angled downwards to give a better view of the van's lower regions - useful when parking in tight spots. Electric windows and electrically adjustable mirrors are standard. The dual passenger seat includes a drop-down desk unit, and the Citroen Relay also comes with a CD player as standard. In-cab storage areas include two glove compartments (the central one is lockable and has room for a lap-top computer), a dashboard-mounted document clip and a couple of open and lidded compartments elsewhere in the dashboard, generous door pockets, a storage area under the passenger seat and a 22-litre open overhead storage compartment. The drivers seat is comfortable, and can be chosen with its own suspension should you think you'd benefit if you spend long hours on the road. The Relay comes with either 100bhp or 120bhp versions of a 2.2-litre HDi diesel. The steering is light and accurate making low-speed manoeuvres relatively easy. The brakes are responsive and the dashboard-mounted gearshift is easy to use and ideally placed.

We also have the extra long wheel base vans, XLWB,also known as Jumbo vans that are ideal for small house moves, flat moves and courier companies. The Volkswagon Crafter in this XLWB range is the product of a joint development between Volkswagen and DaimlerChrysler, so it shares much with the 2006 model Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. The bodies look identical from the sides and they share the same suspension and underpinnings. Also much of the interior including the buttons and switchgear are common not only between the Crafter and Sprinter, but a number of other Mercedes-Benz models too, which is surely no bad thing. Next to the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter with which it has much in common, the Crafter offers the best accommodation in its class as far as the cabin is concerned. The steering wheel adjusts for height and reach, and the gearlever sprouts from the dash close to the steering wheel, for a clear footwell as well as ease of use. The cabin features many storage areas and can include overhead and under-seat storage options. A large glass area gives good visibility and the view to the rear is shown through double door mirrors. The Crafter is pleasing to drive, its suspension (which varies from model to model) delivers a smooth ride with limited body roll.

The 3.5 tonne Luton Box van with a tail lift are the largest vans that we carry at our Birmingham 3.5 ton van hire centre. The 3.5 ton van has a high body which allows for taller items to be loaded and the tail lift enables heavy or awkward items to be loaded safely reducing risk of strain. We also hire out sack trucks so that its easier to transport your boxes to load the van. Our Devon Van hire site has 7.5 ton vans for hire and flatbed tippers on their fleet and are available through our online reservation system for heavier commercial useage. If you would like to hire a 7.5 tonne van in Devon including Plymouth, Exeter and Torquay, please do not hesitate to contact us.

All of our vans and light commercial vehicles can be driven on licences with C1 code.
