A purchase to collect
A compact van may suit boxed purchases or a small piece of furniture. Measure the item as it will travel, including packaging, and compare it with both the door opening and the usable load area.

Before booking
Check the rear opening and wheel-arch space
Choose around the load
A smaller van.
A useful bit of extra space.
A compact or mini van is a useful option when your car is too small but you do not need a medium panel van. Start with the largest item, then allow space for the rest of the load.
Tools for a working day
Consider a compact category for tools, equipment and smaller deliveries. Add up the weight as well as the volume; a short load space is not a guide to how much weight the vehicle can carry.
A few items to move
For a small collection, write down what needs to go in the van before booking. If a bulky item would need to be forced through the doors, compare the medium van category instead.
Measure first. Book with confidence.
Check the fit.
Plan the loading.
- Measure the largest item, including any packaging.
- Check the loading-door opening, load length and width between wheel arches.
- Ask the branch to confirm the payload of the vehicle allocated to your booking.
Vehicle category names are a starting point. The linked vehicle page provides the category details; the branch can confirm what is available for your booking.

Checked against the published vehicle tariffs and CMS on 5 November 2026. The seven-day total applies to seven consecutive days on an eligible hire. Any daily equivalent is the full seven-day total divided by seven; it is not the one-day rate. Weekend hires and extensions use the same standard vehicle rates. Longer periods and specialist agreements are quoted for your dates. These are standard category guide rates; confirm the vehicle, dates, optional extras and complete quote with your branch.
Our compact van fleet covers model years 2024–2026. Load space varies by allocated model. Give us your largest item dimensions so we can match the van to your load.

Compact / mini hire.
Your questions answered.
Practical answers for planning your hire from Maidstone.
Where can I collect a compact / mini van in Maidstone?
Unit 1, Spectrum Business Estate, Bircholt Road, Maidstone, Kent, ME15 9YP. Confirm the vehicle and handover times before travelling. View the branch and map.
Is a compact van the same as a mini van?
Regal lists this category as Mini Van on the vehicle page. This local page uses compact, small and mini van terminology to help you find that category; it does not describe a separate fleet.
Will a sofa fit in a compact van?
There is no one answer for every sofa or van. Measure the sofa and compare it with the actual load area and door opening. If it is too large, ask about a medium or long wheelbase van.
Can I choose a Ford Transit Courier?
Model names and photographs are examples of the category. Ask the branch if a specific feature or dimension is essential, because the allocated make and model may differ.
Where can I find the current vehicle specifications and price?
Open the matching vehicle page for the category details and advertised hire options. The exact make, model, dimensions and available payload may vary. Confirm your dates, location and final quote before booking.
What is included with standard self-drive hire?
VAT, insurance, unlimited mileage and roadside assistance are included with standard eligible self-drive hire, subject to current terms. Optional extras and any specialist arrangements are confirmed before booking.
Can I hire for one day, a week or longer?
Ask about daily, weekly and longer-term hire for your dates. Agree the collection and return times; the booking confirmation sets out the rental period and charges.
