With its famous cathedral and remaining medieval streets, Coventry is a fascinating place to visit and it comes as no surprise that it will be the UK City of Culture in 2021. It’s a great place to conduct business, while its university attracts students from far and wide.
If you’re considering van hire in Coventry, rest assured it’s the perfect way to pick up furniture, white goods or other large purchases from the city’s numerous retail parks. It’s also the perfect solution if you’re moving home or perhaps helping a student in the family with their move to university accommodation. There are also several DIY centres where having a spacious van will come in handy - much more convenient than having to wait in or take time off work for deliveries, you can do it at a time that suits you.
We make Coventry van hire a smooth and stress-free experience.

Coventry has the kind of extensive, modern road network that you’d expect from a city that was once one of the mainstays of the car industry. Here in the West Midlands you’re perfectly situated to make your way between the other major cites and towns in your hire van.
England’s second city, Birmingham, is only half an hour away to the west - along either the M6 or A45. The A444 leaves from the centre of Coventry and passes through Nuneaton before continuing on to Burton-upon-Trent, one of the UK’s brewing capitals. For the pretty Warwickshire spa town of Leamington Spa, with its pump rooms and gorgeous parks, drive south-west on the A46.
Just past Leamington Spa, you can pick up the M40 that then leads all the way south-east to London, under two hours away. Alternatively, you can join the M40 by taking the A423 from Coventry through to Southam. Northampton sits to the east along the A45.
Navigating Coventry itself is relatively simple, whether you’re heading straight into the centre or sticking to the outskirts. For the latter, the A45 runs south of the heart of Coventry, taking you from east to west and avoiding the centre entirely, linking up with the Coventry Eastern Bypass. There are several spokes off it that will take you into the thick of things, including the A4114 Holyhead Road and the A429 Leamington Road.
The inner ring road, the A4053, surrounds many of the places you might want to access in your hire van, such as Ikea, Coventry University, Coventry Market and the Cathedral. The Lower Precinct Shopping Centre is based here too, on junction 7 of the ring road. It’s home to major brands, independent shops but also has over 500 car parking spaces, ideal if you’re stopping nearby. With other parking spots nearby, Coventry van hire is simple and easy.
