Van Hire with european cover for a 23 year old..?

[MrT8064]

Title more or less says what i'm after!

I've been asked to deliver a dining room table for a friend to Amsterdam soon. I've had a hunt around for van hire companies and so far prices have either been crazy (£300 for 48 hours) or impossible due to my age/companies reluctance to insure for european driving.

Does anyone have any ideas? I live in Gloucestershire if that helps! Thanks

A courier would be the best bet given your age.

If you don't mind a ropey van try your local back alley hire van offering.

I rented a LWB LDV piece of st for £35 a day without any restrictions at 21 a few years ago (SE London) although there are likely others closer to you.

Seems like they all want to add about 100% to the rental to allow for european travel...

never the less which route would people recommend to Amsterdam from Gloucestershire?


Looking for the cheapest really, either a ferry to Hook of Holland,

Or eurotunnel then a drive up to amsterdam (round trip c.900miles)?

Unless anyone can think of any other solutions?
