Passenger, luggage and journey details
A short list of details makes it far easier to pick a suitable car once you get in touch.
An interim hire might run for a few days or several weeks, so an approximate finish date helps confirm the right group.
Whether it's booked in for work, sold, or awaiting a replacement, a brief explanation helps judge how flexible your dates might need to be.
Add yourself as driver to everyone else making the journey before comparing a smaller hatchback against a roomier option.
Work equipment, school bags or a pushchair used daily can influence which group suits an ongoing interim hire.
