Why Hiring a Cargo Van from Hireace Is a Smart Choice for Moving House or Work

Whether you're planning a small house move, transporting equipment for a job, or delivering goods for your business, hiring a cargo van from Hireace is one of the most practical and cost-effective choices you can make. Compact, versatile, and incredibly easy to drive, cargo vans offer the perfect mix of convenience and space without the size and weight of a truck.

At Hireace — a 100% Kiwi-owned and operated business with over 25 years of experience — thousands of customers rely on cargo vans to make their move or workday smoother. With competitive pricing, flexible hire periods, and 16 branches nationwide, Hireace makes van rental simple, affordable, and stress-free.

Here’s why a Hireace cargo van is the perfect solution for your next move or job.

1. Compact, Easy to Drive, and Great for City Streets

Cargo vans are ideal for anyone who wants the extra space of a commercial vehicle without the size of a truck. They are:

  • Easy to park

  • Simple to maneuver in tight spaces

  • Comfortable to drive long distances

  • Perfect for both residential areas and busy urban streets

Most people find that driving a Hireace cargo van feels much like driving a large car — just with far more storage space behind you.

2. No Special Licence Required

All Hireace cargo vans can be driven on a full NZ car licence, meaning anyone over the age of 18 who meets the standard requirements can rent one. This makes it incredibly accessible for movers, tradies, gig-workers, and business owners who simply need a practical transport solution without added complications.

3. Surprisingly Spacious for Small Moves

Cargo vans are more spacious than most people realise. Whether you're shifting a small apartment, transporting furniture, or moving bulky gear, a van offers ample room for:

  • Beds and mattresses

  • Couches and chairs

  • Whiteware (fridge, washing machine, dryer)

  • Boxes and storage tubs

  • Tools, equipment, and job materials

For those who don’t need a full truck, a van is the perfect middle ground — offering generous capacity without the size or cost of a larger vehicle.

4. Ideal for Tradies, Contractors, and Small Businesses

Hireace cargo vans aren’t just for moving house — they're also an efficient transport solution for work. With a clean, empty cargo area and plenty of tie-down points, they’re perfect for:

  • Electricians

  • Plumbers

  • Delivery drivers

  • Event and catering teams

  • Market stall operators

  • Construction and maintenance crews

If your work requires carrying tools, stock, or equipment, a van offers a professional and practical alternative to using a personal vehicle.

5. Affordable Rental Rates with No Hidden Fees

Hireace is known for transparent pricing and no hidden costs. With budget-friendly rates, mid-week specials, and the option for short-term or long-term hire, you’ll always know exactly what you’re paying for.

This makes hiring a van much cheaper than hiring movers or investing in a long-term lease vehicle for your business.

6. Flexible Rental Periods — From a Few Hours to Many Days

Every job and move is different. That’s why Hireace offers flexible rental options including:

  • Half-day hire

  • Full-day hire

  • Overnight rentals

  • Weekend hire

  • Multi-day and weekly rates

Whether you need a van for a quick furniture pickup or several days of work-related transport, Hireace has an option to match your schedule.

7. Fuel Efficient and Cost Effective

Cargo vans provide excellent fuel economy compared to trucks, making them ideal for long-distance travel or delivery routes. If you're moving between cities or doing multiple trips throughout the day, a van gives you the perfect balance of capacity, comfort, and fuel savings.

8. Peace of Mind with Insurance & 24/7 Roadside Assistance

When you hire with Hireace, you get both reliability and support. All rentals include:

  • Free basic insurance (with optional excess reduction)

  • 24/7 roadside assistance

  • Modern, well-maintained vehicles

So you can drive with confidence — whether you’re moving house, delivering goods, or heading to a job site.
