Hi, I've just bought a property in Quesada and was wondering how best get some furniture over.
I'm considering driving down in a hired Luton van and returning it back to the UK.
Has anyone done similar or found a better way ?

There are quite a few firms offering one way rentals, hire in UK and leave it in Spain (or the other way round). Save you the return trip.

Thanks Mark and Paul..... I've asked j-hire for a quote.
Transit van and sail to Bilbao and flight home seems the best option.

You could also get a van load to take back 8-)or someone who wants a van to take goods back to UK

Yeah Freddo I cud but this will be a hired van for 4 days...about £600....so if I wanted to return it to UK wud prob cost about another £300 just for the van hire plus ferry etc. My wife and I cud fly back cheaper.
The deal I'm looking at is a one way trip to Quesada in a van and prob fly home.

Hi again bri..I've priced what you are gona do ie. Van hire + ferry fuel Rd tolls..close on £1300.is a lot of dead money if your working and factor in lost earnings b jeez it's mad. Again good luck mate ..
