Moving house can be one of life's most stressful events, but it doesn't have to be! At Hometown Vehicle Hire in Petersfield, we're here to make your move as smooth and hassle-free as possible. This guide will provide you with everything you need to know about hiring a van for your move in Petersfield.
Why Hire a Van for Your Move?
Many people choose to hire a van for their move to save money compared to hiring a full-service removal company. It gives you more control over the process and allows you to move at your own pace. Hiring a van is also a great option for smaller moves or if you're only moving locally.
Choosing the Right Van Size:
Choosing the right van size is crucial for a successful move. Here's a quick guide:
Small Moves (Studio/1-Bedroom Flat):Â Our SWB (Short Wheel Base) vans are ideal for smaller moves with fewer belongings.
Hometown Vehicle Hire Short Wheel Base "SWB" Medium Moves (2-3 Bedroom House):Â Our LWB (Long Wheel Base) vans offer more space and are suitable for larger moves.

Large Moves (4+ Bedroom House):Â Our Luton vans are the largest in our fleet and are perfect for moving the contents of a large house.

(This is a rough guide on sizing as it all depends on how much stuff you own. If you aren't sure please get in touch, we are always happy to help discuss the van you need).
