Cheap Cargo Van & Moving Truck Hire in Cape Town
Top Tips for Hiring a Cargo Van in Cape Town
- Renting a cargo van while in Cape Town is advisable if you need to move a couple of items, take your family on an outdoor retreat, or even make a delivery. With a Cape Town cargo van rental, you'll enjoy adequate storage space to load your cargo, relatively easy vehicle handling, and protection from weather elements.
- At Cape Town International Airport (CPT), you can rent a cargo van without hassle since this airport features on site offices for car rental agencies with several types of Cape Town cargo van rentals. They include Tempest, Woodford, 1Firts, and Green Motion. The offices for all the noted agencies are within the terminal. The demand for Cape Town cargo van rentals offered at CPT is always in high demand. To avoid settling on a cargo van you hadn't planned on or even missing one, reserve your cargo van in advance.
- In order to rent a cargo van in Cape Town, you must be at least 18 years old. Note that if you're below 25 years, you'll pay a bit more than older drivers since car rental agencies in this city apply a young renters surcharge on young renters. Document-wise, you need a valid license from your home country that you've held for at least 12 months, a passport, and a credit card with matching information on your passport. Your driver's license must be in English. You must accompany it with an International Driver's Permit if it isn't.
- Rainfall is prevalent in Cape Town, especially between May and August. Besides rainfall, strong winds are frequent in this city. Cape Town is considered one of the windiest cities on the continent. This is because it has the South Atlantic High-Pressure System in the southwest and an inland low pressure in the northeast. Both conditions make driving a cargo van harder. Rainfall reduces visibility distance. It also leads to wet pavements, which result in less vehicle traction. On the other hand, strong winds can lift a cargo van, reducing the impact between its tires and the surface. This makes steering the vehicle incredibly harder. Given that these conditions are prevalent, you should check out the expected weather forecast before beginning your trip. If you get caught in a wind or rain storm, maintain a low speed.
FAQs About Hiring a Cargo Van in Cape Town
Are there any toll roads in Cape Town?
Cape Town has only one toll road, the renowned Chapmans Peak Drive. This 9 km (5.59-mile) route, with its 114 curves, runs north to south from Hout Bay to Noordhoek, skirting the coastline of the Chapmans Peak, the southerly extension of Mount Constantiaberg. If you enjoy scenic drives, you'll enjoy the 20 to 25 minutes it takes to drive through this road. Its maximum speed limit is 40 km/h (25 mph). In the event of severe wind or rain, it's usually closed as a precaution. Hence, before leaving for it, confirm if it's operating.
What are popular cargo van rental brands in Cape Town?
The Mercedes Sprinter Van is one of the most preferred Cape Town cargo van rentals. This can be attributed to it boasting a long-lasting engine, a chassis built to withstand rugged environments, and a comfy interior. The Hyundai H1 is another highly preferred cargo van in Cape Town. It's highly regarded because it features an economical engine and enormous cargo space.
Are there difficult times to drive in Cape Town?
Traffic in Cape Town is dependent on the time of day. In this city, rush hour comes in two waves, from 6:30 am to 8:30 am and 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm. In the morning, the traffic congestion is towards the city, while in the evening, it's outwards of the city. If you must drive during these periods, consider installing a GPS. Using it, you can identify alternative routes that are less congested in real-time.

Pros:
The staff had to make efforts to explain the extra money they charge...and its very uncofortable to accept the explanation, and unacceptable, once I'd payed for the rental and insurance previously! It was a bad holiday begining... After this experience, I'm checking my VISA account all the time, to verify the expected refund. The drop off was ok.Cons:
You must change the way of doing business. More clear, transparent and balanced value for money. Ca'nt recomend Hertz! Hope Kayak as some usefull feedback to our total insatisfaction!6.0 Okay
Erin, Jan 2020
Cons:
We waited for an hour and 45 minutes for our car. This has been our experience the last few times we’ve used Hertz. No apologies or discounts.7 locations in Cape Town
