Measure the load and check both addresses

Plan van hire in Ottershaw

Deciding whether to lift an item by hand or use a tail lift usually comes down to how the vehicle is selected, loaded and returned.

Assess the item first

Note the item's approximate weight and dimensions before choosing between a panel van and a tail-lift Luton.

Match the loading method

A tail lift lowers to kerb height, which can suit a single heavy piece better than sliding it up a ramp.

Secure it for the journey

Straps or blankets help keep a heavy item stable once it's loaded, particularly on a longer drive.

Check the return point

If the item is heading into storage rather than a final address, let us know so the right van is arranged for both stops.

Ottershaw van hire journey notes

Routes and access for van hire in Ottershaw

Storage moves via Woking

If a heavy item is heading into storage before its next move, Titan Self Storage's Woking site sits at Orchard Business Park, Forsyth Road, GU21 5SB. The store has no drive-up units, but it does provide trolleys, lifts and covered loading bays on site, so a tail-lift van may matter less there than at an address without that equipment. Check current access arrangements with the facility itself before you visit.

Coverage across Runnymede and nearby villages

Ottershaw sits within Runnymede, Surrey, and our van hire also extends to Addlestone, Chertsey, West Byfleet and Thorpe, each covered on its own page should your move start or finish nearby.

Van Hire questions
Can one person load a heavy item using a tail lift?
A tail lift reduces the amount of lifting required by bringing the item down to ground level, though a second pair of hands is still sensible for anything bulky or awkward.
Does the storage facility at Woking provide any lifting equipment?
Titan Self Storage's Woking site has no drive-up units, but its trolleys, lifts and covered loading bays are on site, which may reduce how much a tail lift is needed there. Check current access arrangements with the facility itself.
What happens if the item turns out to be heavier than expected?
Let us know as soon as possible; every van has a maximum payload, and we can discuss whether a different van suits the actual weight better than the one first booked.
