When you are moving a short distance or moving far away, renting a truck can help you save a lot on your moving expenses. As you must already be aware, hiring professional moving services does not come cheap. Furthermore, these companies take away the freedom from you. The moment you hire their services, your home or office move will be completed as per their plans or their availability slot. This is not the case when you decide on a DIY move and rent a truck from rental providers like, T G Commercials Self Drive.
We provide moving truck rental in Manchester and in different other towns for in-town, one-way and even two-way moves. Our trucks are available in different sizes to suit individual needs. Here are some helpful tips to make sure that you enjoy a smooth, enjoyable truck rental experience.
Figure out the size of the truck
For transporting furniture of a small apartment, or one or two rooms, it is best if you check out our collection of vans for hire. A small van would be perfect for your small move. But, for larger moves, you can rent our 7.5 tonne truck. Our trucks come with tippers, tail lifts, box tail lifts and more. You can make your choice as per your specific needs.
Remember that it is always best to rent a truck that has more space than having to make multiple trips. However, make sure not to rent a very big truck because it will be more expensive and also your furniture will simply move around and hit each other during transit. If you need any help deciding the size of the truck, feel free to talk to our team of experts. They will listen to your moving needs and recommend you the perfect sized truck for a successful, hassle-free move.
Hire a truck that you can drive
At T G Commercials Self Drive, we provide trucks for hire that have to be self-driven. So, you have to drive the truck that you rent from us. This is why it is crucial to consider if you will be able to safely drive the truck that you are renting. Before you sign our rental agreement, sit in the drivers’ seat and ensure that you are comfortable.
We would also like to bring to your notice that not all trucks feature automatic transmissions. You have to check the vehicle before renting it out. If you have come to us looking for a specific truck model that you are comfortable driving, let us know. We will source the truck for you, if it is not a part of our fleet.
Request a quote
Nobody likes to be asked to pay a surprising amount. As rental providers, we can provide you with flexible rental solutions tailored to your unique needs. If you can give us certain information like, the mileage, the truck size and for how long you are planning to rent our vehicle, we will be able to give you an obligation-free quote. We are always concerned about the welfare of our customers and do not have any hidden costs.
Enquire about insurance and roadside assistance
The truck is, after all, a machine. It is possible that it might break down in the middle of your journey. If this happens, you need to know what service the rental provider is offering to make sure that you can be back on the road and in no time. Here also, T G Commercials Self Drive stands apart from other rental companies in Manchester as we offer unmatched roadside assistance. You can count on us whenever you have an emergency and we will assist you.
