If you are looking for van hire near Andover, Alco Van Hire’s collection point in Winchester is around 16 to 18 miles from central Andover by road from the centre of Andover. Customers can choose SWB, LWB and 3.5-tonne Luton tail-lift vans.
Alco offers an alternative for Andover customers who need a self-drive van for moving, business work, furniture collection or temporary extra carrying capacity.
Andover has substantial residential and commercial areas, including Charlton, Picket Twenty, Augusta Park and the Walworth area. Van hire can suit house moves, deliveries, equipment and stock, while the Luton tail lift is especially useful where bulky items are difficult to lift into a conventional panel van.
Andover sits close to the A303, with road links towards Winchester via the A34/A303 corridor and connecting roads. Because Alco is on the western side of Winchester at Pitt, the collection point can be reached without entering the main city-centre streets.
Alco's three main van sizes cover very different loads. The table below uses the current vehicle data published on the Alco website.
| Van | Load volume | Payload | Load area (L × W × H) | Rear opening (W × H) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SWB Ford Transit | 6.2m³ | 869kg | 2,495 × 1,745 × 1,430mm | 1,540 × 1,350mm |
| LWB Ford Transit | 11.0m³ | 1,192kg | 3,399 × 1,745 × 1,855mm | 1,540 × 1,796mm |
