Does anyone know of a good van rental company?
 
I am moving from London to Maidenhead at the end of the month and need to rent a van on the 28th July (Saturday) for the day. Trouble is that all the rental companies I have spoken to seem to only open from 9-12 on Saturday and are closed on Sunday forcing you to pay for the whole weekend.

If any of you have any recommendations then please let me know.

Jon

PS - I live in Southwark but dont care whether I pick the van up/drop the van off in London or Maidenhead.

We used a local man and van company to move from St Helens to Warrington, about 9 miles, so, 1 van 3 people and 4 trips later they only charged us £35. Result. Id check your local paper for similar ads. I used to work for Ryders and they were ok.

Not sure I really need a man with a van. There is me and two of my mates helping with the move and the quotes for man with a van came in at £250. My main priority is to get a van on the cheeeeeeeeep!

I used these when I went to pick up the SV. Pretty sure they do a Sunday return.
