It is often said that asides from getting married and having children, one of the most stressful things you can do is to move house.

In addition to the practical complications of packing your belongings into boxes, you must also find the means to transport your goods from your old house to your new location.

Many people opt for professional removal companies to assist with moving house; however this can be very expensive. Also, unless you receive a recommendation from a friend or family member, it can be difficult to guarantee the standard of service you receive; after all you are entrusting your most precious belongings into someone else’s care.

Van leasing is an affordable alternative to employing a professional removals company, allowing you to pack and transport your goods yourselves. Whilst most of us can’t fit the contents of our home into our everyday car, there are several companies such as Lease4Less that will contract hire a larger vehicle for days, weeks or even months.

Van leasing can be particularly beneficial if you are moving to a new property within close proximity to your existing home. It also gives you an extra level of flexibility to decide when you move and at what time. Plus, if it takes longer than expected you won’t be faced with additional fees – most firms have a flexible policy when it comes to extending the contract hire time.

Many vehicle leasing companies also include added benefits such as roadside assistance should you break down en route, full manufacturer warranty and they will deliver and collect the van to avoid time-wasting going to pick the vehicle up. They will also source the van from a manufacturer appointed UK dealership in order to ensure vehicle reliability, providing a vehicle in as little as ten days following your order.
