Why choose XLWB van hire?

XLWB vans, like the Citroen Relay XLWB, Ford Transit XLWB and similar offer that much-needed extra space and comfort, making them perfect for those times when a regular LWB van just won't cut it. Here’s why they’re a game-changer:

‍

• Extra Space for Extra Needs: Whether you're moving house, transporting large items for your small business, or going on a family adventure with loads of gear, the additional space in an XLWB van makes a world of difference.

• Comfort and Convenience: Long drives can be tiring, but not in an XLWB van. These vehicles are designed for comfort, ensuring a pleasant journey no matter the distance.

• Cost-Effective: Hiring an XLWB van can be more cost-effective than making multiple trips with a smaller vehicle. Save time, fuel, and hassle!

When to opt for XLWB Van Hire over LWB?

While LWB vans are great for standard needs, there are specific scenarios where only an XLWB van hire will do:

‍

• Large-Scale Moves: Relocating your home or office? XLWB vans can accommodate larger furniture and more boxes in one go.

• Event Planning: Transporting equipment for events or exhibitions? The extra length in these vans ensures all your materials arrive in one piece.

• Business Deliveries: For business owners, the XLWB van rental is a boon for delivering larger orders efficiently.

‍

Can I drive an XLWB van hire?

• Driving Licence Requirements: If you possess a standard car driving licence, you can drive a van up to 3,500kg. However, if you passed your driving test after January 1, 1997, additional tests might be required to drive vehicles weighing between 3,500kg and 7,500kg or to tow a trailer with your van. Driving without the appropriate licence can lead to a fine of up to £1,000 and 3 to 6 penalty points​​.

• Speed Limits: Vans have different speed limits compared to cars and car-type vans. The limits for a standard van are 30 mph in built-up areas, 50 mph on single carriageways, 60 mph on dual carriageways, and 70 mph on motorways. Exceeding these limits can result in fines up to £1,000, or £2,500 for motorway offences, along with 3 to 6 penalty points​​.

• Weight Limits and Loading: The 'design gross weight' of your van is its maximum allowed weight when loaded, which includes the van itself, driver and passengers, fuel, and load. Overloading the van or its axles can affect performance and safety, leading to fines or court summons. It's important to secure your goods properly within the van, using appropriate restraints like netting and straps​​.

When is Bigger Better?

When it comes to transporting goods or managing logistics, size indeed matters. XLWB vans stand out in scenarios where the standard Long Wheel Base (LWB) vans fall short. 

Consider a home moving day – an XLWB van hire can accommodate larger furniture pieces and more boxes in one trip, reducing time and stress. 

For businesses, especially those in retail or events, the extra length and height of an XLWB van rental mean fewer trips and efficient handling of bulky items like exhibition stands or large inventory stocks. 

Similarly, tradespeople working on substantial projects can benefit from the additional space for tools and materials. 

In essence, XLWB van hire is the superior choice when the load, volume, and efficiency are key considerations, making 'bigger' not just better, but essential.
