Had a hire van - going to be returned - wotspur
My firm hired a van for 6 months, and now it has to be returned, a bit of advice required please.

1 Do the van rentals firms expect it to be returned, cleaned inside and out, or do they always do it anyway and charge one for it, if so I won't bother, unless it will be cheaper to do so.

2 They is a slight paint mark on the side, but no indentation,what could be used to take it off, without damaging the paint work?? and do they ignore scrapes on bumpers, after all that's what they're there for -

1. Car hire firms usually reckon to valet inside and out - I think this is factored into the contract price anyway.

2. Try a paste wax polish, if that fails T-Cut but don't rub too hard! A bit of polish to restore original shine. I doubt if they'll ignore bumper scrapes though.

Spoken like a typical white van man :-)
