Moving home this Easter takes more than booking a van. Getting the most from a single day’s hire depends on how well you plan the load, the route and the timing. So, if your date is fixed, secure your van hire in Warrington early. Booking two weeks ahead also earns an advance discount on selected vans.
Planning the Load Before Moving Day
Decide your loading order before the van arrives. Items you need first, such as bedding and the kettle, go in last. Meanwhile, heavy items like washing machines go in first, low and against the bulkhead. As a result, the van stays balanced on the road.
Choosing a Van When Moving Home This Easter
For a studio or one-bedroom flat, a short wheelbase medium roof van is easy to park in tight streets. If you have two or three bedrooms, a long wheelbase high roof van is the popular choice. For the largest loads, the Luton van with tail lift lifts heavy items for you.
Easter Routes and Timing
Good Friday and Easter Monday are usually the busiest days on the motorways. Therefore, Easter Saturday is often the best day for a longer drive. Check the dates on the official GOV.UK bank holidays page. Local moves to Appleton van hire or Winwick van hire areas are usually quick.
Moving Home This Easter on Collection Day
We open at 8am, so collect early for the most usable hours. Bring your licence and DVLA check code. Then walk around the van with the team and note any marks. Your car can stay in our secure parking all day.
Protecting Your Belongings
Use blankets between hard furniture. Next, stack similar boxes together. Then keep mirrors and glass upright against the side walls. Our guide on how to load a hire van safely explains more.
