Plan van hire in Long Ditton

A few details about your load help us point you to the right van group.

Dropside or tipper

A dropside gives open-sided access for long items such as timber or fencing, while a tipper suits loose loads like soil or rubble that need emptying on site.

Weigh up your load

Tell us the approximate weight and volume of your load so we can talk through a suitable dropside, tipper or panel van.

Crew travel

A crew van keeps a small team and their tools together when a job needs more than one pair of hands.

Moving into storage

If you're loading boxes and furniture bound for a storage unit, a mid-size van or Luton can carry a fuller load in one trip.

Loading for a storage run

Shurgard's directions describe its Surbiton self-storage store as sited between Surbiton and Thames Ditton on Portsmouth Road (A307), and the same page states the store is easily reached from a wider area it lists as including Long Ditton. The Shurgard page also mentions a drive-through loading area and parking at the site, which may be useful if you're loading a van there, though access, vehicle size and any restrictions should be confirmed with Shurgard directly rather than assumed.

Practical van hire answers for Long Ditton

Van Hire questions
What's the difference between a dropside and a tipper van?
A dropside has drop-down sides for loading long or bulky items from any angle, while a tipper has a bed that lifts to release loose materials such as soil or rubble.
Can I use a hired van to load at the Shurgard store near Surbiton?
Shurgard's own page describes a drive-through loading area and parking at its Surbiton store, but access, vehicle size and any restrictions should be confirmed with Shurgard directly before you arrive.
Is there a weight limit on a dropside or tipper hire?
Each van group has its own load capacity, so tell us the approximate weight of your load when you enquire and we'll match a suitable option.
