Edinburgh Van Hire

Apart from Edinburgh Airport, which has the most variety of agencies and people carriers at affordable rates, there are also other locations situated in Edinburgh city centre, mostly around Waverley Train Station. Whilst most Edinburgh people carrier hire is located within a few steps of the station, there are also some agencies close to Edinburgh Harbour. The city centre hire agencies are particularly useful for residents who don’t want to travel to the airport, but that isn’t as advantageous for visitors who arrive by plane, as taxi return fares from the airport to the city centre cost about £40.

In addition to paid street parking in the city centre, there are also plenty of multi-storey car parks, such as the ones near Waverley Station, Blackfriars Street (next to Radisson Blu Hotel Edinburgh City Centre), Edinburgh Castle Terrace, St. Mary’s Street (near Travelodge) and many more. The farther you go from the city centre, the easiest it will be to find free parking on the street; although, those can be limited. There are also plenty of Park & Ride car parks located outside Edinburgh, but then you’ll need to get a bus or a tram to reach the city centre.

There are plenty of people carriers available to suit most styles and budget. The Peugeot 5008, the Toyota Verso and the Seat Alhambra are excellent models of passenger people carriers with five doors that can comfortably seat up to seven people. If you need something bigger, the Ford Transit is more spacious and can receive around nine people. Those looking for more comfort and luxury can opt for a premium experience with an Opel Zafira Tourer or a Ford Galaxy.
