I think i'll be needing to rent a long wheelbased van soon, are there any large companies who rent out to under 21 year olds? I'm not 21 untill May.
Thanks

You wont get an LWB under 25 from anywhere. It's also illegal to hire a vehicle to someone who is under 21 in the UK.

what yopu need the van for? Arnold clark will do hilux's if it's for a towbar.
Thrifty do under21 van hire, if someone over 21 will put their name on also.
i have to rent vans quite alot due to my work, just call around, even rent in your maw or dads name, and tell them you'll be driving it. It may be an extra 20 or so.

Ive hired a Van when i was 21. Sprinter luton van.
Had to pay more than over 21's though, its not illegal to hire a van at 21, its just most places fuss about insurance.
