Top Tips for Hiring a Van in Bristol

  • If you want to enjoy a nice drive in Bristol, then why not go through the old harbour? You can see some iconic historical landmarks and get a view of the ocean without even needing to leave your people carrier. It is a great way to understand the heart of the town within a short space of time. Beyond that, the highways are generally quite easy to navigate, so if you want to get to know the town better, then you should have an easy time of it.
  • When considering a Bristol people carrier hire, make sure you find out where the nearest parking station is to where you will be staying or in places throughout Bristol where you know you will be; otherwise, you may have some difficulty in finding a parking spot that is close to where you want to be. You will have plenty of options when it comes to paid parking, from per 24-hour parking to being able to pay for a week, month or even year.
  • Drivers with a Bristol people carrier hire should be considerate of the 20 mph (32 km/h) speed limit on most of the roads within the city. If you need to go over the Clifton suspension bridge, be mindful that you will either need a contactless card or coins to pay the toll at the gate, and be aware that there are animals in the wilderness, and so you should drive with caution, especially outside the city limits.
  • If you are driving during the winter months, take note that Bristol has a snowy season, and the snow can collect at the lower points of hilly areas. This should be easy enough to traverse; however, it may affect traffic, so if it is snowing, expect to add at least 10min or more to your journey. Make sure you plan your trip carefully, and maybe even get advice from someone familiar with the area.
  • 25% of our users found a people carrier hire in Bristol for $180 or less
  • Book your people carrier hire in Bristol at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • January is typically the cheapest month to hire a van in Bristol, with prices around $96 per day. The most expensive month is September, with average prices of $164 per day.

FAQs About Hiring a Van in Bristol

  • Where can I drive throughout Bristol in my hired people carrier?

    If you are driving a people carrier that weighs less than three and a half tonnes, then you do not need to worry about anti-congestion laws. The laws prevent light goods vehicles and larger vehicles from entering certain parts of the city centre. However, since people carriers are smaller than three and a half tonnes, there should be no concerns about congestion charges or laws preventing you from driving wherever with your Bristol people carrier hire.

  • Where is the closest hire drop-off station to the airport?

    You do not need to worry if you need to drop your people carrier off but are in a hurry, as the brands listed through KAYAK provide drop-off stations for your convenience. Make sure to enquire as to where the relevant drop-off station might be when you first hire your people carrier. Your hire provider should either give you a map or an address where you can return your car.

  • What documents do I need to hire a people carrier in Bristol?

    If you plan on hiring a people carrier in Bristol, you will need to provide your existing driver’s licence, or an English copy with your International Driver’s Permit. If you have a European Union licence with the EU symbol on it, then you do not need an International Driver’s Permit. You will also need evidence of third party insurance, as well as a valid ID. Do bear in mind that drivers need to be over the age of 18 to hire a car and that most customers under 25 will receive a young driver surcharge. You can generally hire a vehicle with either a debit or credit card; although, payment is usually expected up front.

  • How does KAYAK find such low van hire prices?

    KAYAK compares van hire prices from all major car hire companies such as Thrifty, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, Payless and more to find you the best deal.

  • How much does a van hire cost in Bristol?

    On average a van hire in Bristol costs $208 per day.

  • Which car hire companies in Bristol hire vans?

    Car hire companies in Bristol that hire vans include Alamo, DRIVALIA , Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Europcar, GREEN MOTION and National.

  • How much does it cost to hire a people carrier for a week in Bristol?

    On average a people carrier in Bristol costs $1,459 per week ($208 per day) to hire.

  • How much does it cost to hire a people carrier long term for a month in Bristol?

    On average a people carrier in Bristol costs $6,253 per month ($1,459 per week) to hire.

Pros:

Loved that I got a super great car to drive around, great staff to deal with (even with me a little emotional picking the car up--lost my bank card!) But we dealt with it well,, and away I went for the weekend :) Car was clean, tidy very easy and simple to drive. Staff were polite and made it very easy to do, out and back in again.

Cons:

That I couldnt pay the deposit with cash. But that's okay, it got sorted

Whenever I have pre booked previously, basic insurance has always been included. I was told this had recently changed and was no longer the case. Disappointed that my pre booked price was not what I paid in the end! Had to leave earlier than anticipated to avoid paying two days insurance, instead of one. You need to spell this out when people are booking!

We had to wait for a long time to have the gentleman who man's the rental station at the hotel near Bristol airport to come in, and left almost an HOUR after we got to the hotel! Car tank was only HALF full. I was charged an extra 30 POUNDS for gas that was not disclosed to me at Kayak rental PLUS another amount for liability insurance that the gentleman at counter said was required by law. I had purchased Kayak insurance already and was surprised that I had to pay this extra. And now there a further $68 charge on my credit card account from Easirent for what, I have no idea!!!
