easyVan.com increases availability of popular Luton Vans

easyVan.com the low cost van rental service from easyCar that provides van hire from more than 120 convenient locations throughout England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, has just increased the availability of Luton vans with tail lift, following strong demand from customers.

easyVan.com has decided to put this type of van on "free sale" in Huddersfield, Milton Keynes, Peterborough and Huntingdon. The "free sale" process means the Luton vans are no longer "on request" on the easyVan.com website, but can be booked and confirmed straight away. The only conditions are that the minimum lead time between booking and pick up is five days and the minimum rental length is two days. All other vans, including the Vauxhall Combo and regular Ford Transit SWB, can be booked for the next day.

easyVan.com is the new low cost van hire service from easy.com. Born from the rapid expansion of easyCar.com, easyVan.com focus solely on delivering value for van rental throughout the UK. The easyVan offering is working in partnership with Northgate plc, the UK's largest van leasing and hire company.

easyVan, launched in January 2007, is one of several easyGroup companies founded by Greek entrepreneur Stelios Haji-Ioannou. The easyGroup includes several well known companies such as easyJet, easyInternetcafe, easyCar, easyPizza, easyJobs and easyMusic amongst others.

The new business offers consumers low cost van hire with a range of six different sizes of vehicles to suit the requirements of most private customers. Research has shown that UK customers require short term van rental for activities like moving house, collecting furniture, transporting household items, helping students in and out of university accommodation and completing DIY projects.

The business now has more than 120 locations across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and has a similar business model to that of easyCar.com. This means easyVan.com acts as the Van Rental Company and is responsible for the website, marketing and customer services, while the actual vehicles are provided by a range of quality suppliers, including Northgate plc, from their individual rental locations.
