Time to think about your Christmas rental needs

The summer peak holiday rental season is over, but there’s no time for us to relax!

It will soon be Christmas and we are already aware that there will be shortages of rental vehicles for private renters.

We know that the Royal Mail is going to be short of thousands of vehicles this year, both cars and vans.

Cars, too, will be in short supply because of the numbers of businesses now renting them for their fleets.

So, while it may seem a little early to be thinking about Christmas, if you expect you are going to need to rent a vehicle please get in touch as soon as possible.

We do our best to satisfy all our customers’ needs.

If you are hoping to rent a van before Christmas we are asking our customers to please give us at least two weeks’ notice.

The demand for transit vans has gone through the roof in the last few weeks, partly because of the latest pandemic lockdown and partly because there has been a huge shift to online shopping.

With Christmas on the way both delivery drivers and the Royal Mail are coming under increasing pressure and although we have added to our fleet to try to keep up with their demand we are struggling to meet them.

We now have 80 vans rented out for parcel deliveries and the companies are warning that if people don’t put in their orders soon they are unlikely to receive their deliveries before Christmas.

So, if you are a private customer looking for a van for a day, perhaps for a house move, we would appreciate your giving us at least two weeks’ notice.

As ever, we are keeping to our sanitisation and hygiene routines for both vehicles and visitors to our offices.
