Thinking ahead – planning your vehicle hire in advance

Every Friday, the YelloHire office receives a number of calls from customers keen to book their van rental for the weekend at the very last minute. It may be that they are moving house and have been let down by a friend with a van, or simply haven’t thought to book any earlier. While we always strive to meet our customers needs, sometimes the short notice vehicle requirements cannot be met due to a high demand for certain models.
