Carlisle, We're Here – Regal Car, Van & Truck Rental Has Arrived
Affordable vehicle hire has arrived in Carlisle.
We're proud to announce the official opening of Regal Car, Van & Truck Rental Carlisle, bringing over 20 years of vehicle hire experience to customers across Carlisle, Cumbria and the surrounding areas.
Whether you're moving home, growing your business, transporting equipment or simply need a reliable vehicle for a few days, our mission is simple: make vehicle hire easy, affordable and dependable.
This isn't just another new branch—it's the next chapter in a family business built on honest service, quality vehicles and putting customers first.
A Family Business Built on Trust
For more than two decades, Regal has helped thousands of customers with reliable car, van and truck hire across Kent. From tradespeople needing a van for the day to businesses operating large commercial fleets, we've built our reputation by providing clean, well-maintained vehicles backed by friendly, knowledgeable service.
Now, we're excited to bring that same level of service to Carlisle.
Our goal isn't simply to hire vehicles—it's to become the first company local residents and businesses think of whenever they need dependable vehicle hire.
You can also explore our established branches in Chatham, Sheerness, and Maidstone, where we've built strong relationships with customers over the years.
Proud to Support Carlisle and Cumbria
Carlisle is a city that's constantly moving.
From local trades and construction projects to home moves, growing businesses and everyday life, reliable transport keeps everything running. We saw an opportunity to provide a professional, customer-focused vehicle hire service that puts flexibility and service at the heart of everything we do.
Whether you're:
- Moving house
- Collecting furniture or large purchases

- Managing a construction project
- Covering for a vehicle that's off the road

Hiring Made Easy
You don't need to wait to hire from us.
To make getting on the road as easy as possible, we're currently offering vehicle delivery and collection throughout Carlisle and the surrounding areas, allowing customers to start hiring immediately while we complete preparations for our dedicated Carlisle depot.
It's all part of our commitment to making vehicle hire work around you—not the other way around.
Supporting Those Who Serve Our Communities
At Regal, we believe in giving something back to the people who dedicate their lives to serving others.
That's why we're proud to offer Blue Light Card discounts to eligible emergency service workers and exclusive discounts for serving members of the Armed Forces and military veterans.
As a business with strong military roots, supporting the Armed Forces community is something we're passionate about. It's our way of saying thank you for your service.
If you're eligible, simply let our team know when booking your vehicle and we'll be happy to discuss the discounts available.

The Right Vehicle for Every Job
No two customers are the same, which is why we've built a fleet capable of handling almost every requirement.
Our Carlisle fleet includes:
- Short Wheel Base Vans – perfect for everyday jobs, smaller deliveries and local business use.
- Long Wheel Base Vans – ideal when you need more space without sacrificing manoeuvrability.
- Extra Long Wheel Base Vans – designed for larger loads and commercial work.
- Luton Low Loader Vans – one of the UK's most popular choices for house moves.
- Luton Tail Lift Vans – making heavy lifting safer and easier.
- 7.5 Tonne Trucks – ideal for major moves, commercial transport and specialist deliveries.*
Every vehicle is professionally maintained, thoroughly inspected and prepared before every hire, giving you complete confidence from the moment you collect the keys—or we deliver them to you.
Please note: our 7.5 tonne trucks require a Category C driving licence, and business use of these vehicles requires a valid operator’s licence.
Helping Local Businesses Stay Moving
We understand that businesses don't stop when a vehicle breaks down or demand suddenly increases.
That's why we work with businesses of every size, including, but not limited to:
- Builders and construction companies
- Electricians
- Plumbers
- Landscapers
- Removal companies
- Housing associations
- Utility contractors
- Local authorities
- Small businesses and growing fleets
Alongside our daily and weekly rental options, we also provide flexible long-term contract hire, giving businesses access to modern vehicles without the cost and commitment of purchasing them outright.
Our contract hire packages include servicing, maintenance, MOTs and breakdown cover, helping businesses stay productive while we take care of the vehicles.
More Than Just Vehicle Hire
As a family-run business, relationships matter.
We want to become part of the Carlisle community by supporting local businesses, working with local organisations and delivering the kind of customer service that keeps people coming back.
When you hire from Regal, you're not just another booking—you become part of a business that genuinely values long-term relationships and local trust.
This Is Just the Beginning
Opening our Carlisle branch is an exciting milestone, but it's only the start of our journey in Cumbria.
We'll continue investing in our fleet, expanding our services and building a dedicated Carlisle depot to give customers even greater convenience in the future.
In the meantime, our delivery and collection service means you can enjoy the same professional Regal experience from day one.
To everyone who has welcomed us to Carlisle already—thank you.
We can't wait to support local residents, businesses and organisations for many years to come.
