Many people when hiring a van on The Gold Coast
often do not put enough thought into it so can
become disappointed with the outcome. Depending
on the type of move you want to make, the
distance youre moving, the amount of time you
have to make your move and the budget you have to
work with, a well-planned van hire on the Gold
Coast can be an enjoyable and cost effective
decision. A few points to consider so that you
avoid some common mistakes

• When moving your home or office, try and start
  the preparations as soon as you have made the
  decision to move and have a destination. Do not
  put it off until the last minute as most busy
  people find that its surprising how quickly time
  races by and before you know it your moving day
  will be upon you.

• Sort out how much stuff you have to move, this is
  a good time to get rid of thing you no longer
  require or want anymore. Maybe place the things
  you want to keep with you in one area and set the
  things you dont want in another area when you
  can sell, give to friends or relatives or take to
  the recycling center.
• Now that you have determined the size of your
  load it becomes easier to find a van hire on Gold
  Cost that will be ideal for your purposes.

5

• Work out the route you will use when you drive so
  you are familiar with how to get there and any
  obstacles such as one-way streets steep hills or
  sharp corners. Check to see if there are any
  sports or cultural events in the area that could
  be problematic on the day of your move.

6

• Several weeks before you plan on hiring a van,
  get a few quotes from different van hire places
  so you can compare the different options they
  have
• Ask the Hire companies about their rates for the
  time you require the van, making sure you give
  yourself plenty of time to load, drive to the
  destination, unload and then have a good break
  before returning the van to the company.
• Find out about a ½ day, full day, 24 hour and
  weekend rates, sometimes you may get a good deal
  for a 3 day weekend. Check the insurance cover
  the offer, usually, this is covered in the hire
  rate but it can be a good idea to ask for extra
  insurance.

7

• Find out about penalties rates for returning the
  van late in case of unforeseen circumstances.
• Most hire companies have new or near new vans for
  hire, but some can give you an older model at a
  reduced rate if you are on a tight budget.
• Find out if they have a drop-off and a pick-up
  service and what if any extra charges.
