Vans are larger vehicle in general than cars, and considering that majority of the time car hire suppliers require that you are over 25 then it was safe to assume the same rule would be applicable to vans. This is due to the insurance premiums that the rental companies have to pay in order to be able to accommodate young drivers, however we weren’t deterred and we have managed to find a few suppliers who will allow van hire for under 25s, as long as certain restrictions are met.
Can you rent a van under 25?
In most cases you can’t, however we have arranged a van hire deal in which we can accommodate drivers from the age of 23, and with no daily additional fee which is typical for young drivers. If you’re looking to rent a van and you are under the age of 25 we may be able to help, subject to a few T&Cs such as the driver having held their licence for at least a year. If you are interested in this offer, please contact us directly as it is specialist.

Young Van Hire Offers & Deals

One Way Van Hire
Moving to the other side of the country? It’s common with van hire that people want to pick up the van in one location and drop it off at another, and this is something that we can arrange for you. It’s a very specific request as it is dependant if the van rental company have branches in both locations, so please contact us directly for more details around this offer.

Another very common request. We allow customers to hire a van just for a day, and we can even arrange for only a few hours if required!
Debit Card Van Hire
If you’ve ever looked into hiring a van or a car before then you will likely know that most companies only accept credit cards. That being said we can now accept debit cards in conjunction with young driver van hire. If you want to find out more, we have a dedicated debit card van hire page.
Van Hire No Deposit
Are you looking for a no deposit option? Deposits on vans especially can be excessive, and we recognise that often you may be unable to have that amount frozen on your credit card as you may need to use it, so we have managed to arrange a deal with a supplier that allows van hire without a deposit.
If you are wanting to arrange these offers however then you must call us directly on +44 (0)113 880 0748 or email us at [email protected] and please DO NOT book online as we can’t ensure that you will get the right supplier for this deal.

Not a problem! It’s not as daunting as you may think. We’ve written a comprehensive guide on driving a van for the first time which should help ease the nerves!
Can I hire a van with a tail lift as a young driver?
Unfortunately no, tail lifts are available on larger vans like the Luton which require drivers to be 25+.
How much is it to hire a van for a day?
Unfortunately we can’t give you a price for a day without knowing your requirements, van hire prices change every hour of every day with supply and demand, the best way to find out a price is by giving us a call.
Are you open on a Sunday?
Yes we are open Sundays, however it may be limited hours in particular locations due to suppliers opening times.
Can you drop off the van and collect it?
Absolutely, this is another one of our great offers. We can deliver and collect the van making the whole process hassle free! Please ensure you contact us directly to arrange this.

by Joseph Fernandes on Indigo Car Hire
Highly recommended
I was getting increasingly worried as I had holidays booked, but could not hire a car, as I do not a credit card. I came across Indigo and it could not have been more straightforward to sort something out. I have used it again to hire a van for some removals, and once again it went well. I shall be carry on using Indigo.
