What's the best place for long-term rental van hire?

I was made redundant in January and I'm finding it very hard to get another job in my sector and need to start earning again fast with two kids and a wife. A well paid night shift van driving job has come up, but you need to hire your own 3.5 tonne van. Do you know of a cheap national chain or a local van rental provider in the West Midlands?

There are multiple companies offering long-term van hire in your region, but we can't recommend an individual one. You would be best contacting a a few local providers for quotes, but don't necessarily go for the cheapest as you'll be doing a lot of miles - the insurance cover included will be an important consideration.
