Where you collect the truck
State the eligible address where you intend to take handover of the vehicle, so the arrangement can be checked against the booking.
Where it is returned
Confirm the address for collection at the end of the hire, and raise any different finish point early so it can be agreed separately.
Measure every item
Write down the dimensions and weight of each part of the load, including the largest pieces, so the combined requirement can be compared with the offered classes.
How it will be loaded
Describe the method at each end, whether that means a tail lift, a crane on site or manual handling, so the body type is reviewed with unloading in mind.

Will I receive the exact truck pictured on the website?
Vehicle examples are described as or similar, so the model shown is indicative. The offered group is confirmed during the enquiry rather than a specific make being promised.
What should I say about unloading at the delivery end?
Explain how the goods will be taken off, whether by tail lift, on-site equipment or by hand. Note that collection and delivery here refer to your load; the handover and return of the hire vehicle itself are arranged at the addresses agreed for the booking.
Can I pick the truck up in one place and leave it in another?
Mainland one-way hire is something you can request, and it is agreed separately rather than being automatic. Mention it when you book so the arrangement can be settled in advance.
