Wanted, hire a luton van for 3 days

Postby mike331 » Wed May 23, 2007 6:57 pm

I might have a job on, starting 16th june for 3 days. I will need a Luton, pref long wheel base. Thought I'd ask here before trying the local hire companies, as I'd rather my money went to a like minded individual.

It's for a trip up to the isle of skye, the only small stumbling block I have, is my licence is still adressed as my parents house. Didn't realise I'd forgoten to send it off till today, and doubt I'd get it back in time for the trip :oops: :oops:

Anybody got any sensible ideas or a van I can hire?

Royspeed is no longer a member on here so I doubt he will answer any PMs.

it appears to be free to change address, but better with a photo licence which costs £19.00

Need to hire a van. I got a job on that would mean me making 2 or 3 trips in my tiny tranny, so need a luton to make the job easier. :wink: Just thought I'd ask on here, as stated, would rather give my money to someone off here rather than the scallies round Derby :lol:

O.K. Looks like I've won the job, need a van late on the 19th till teatime on 22nd june. If any body can help let me know. I've found a local hire company who can do it for £150 all in, mk6? luton, could be mk7, I don't know the difference :lol: but smart and it's still a tranny which is the main thing 8)

Would rather I gave my money to one of you lot though :wink:

Big P.s. if anybody has anything in scottland, that they want fetching back towards the midlands, let me know :idea:

It's a hire company called Nightingale, here in Derby. Obviously that's just for the hire, and last time I hired a van from them, the tank was almost completely dry :lol: litterally on fumes getting to the garage to put some in.
