Roof Box Hire in Somerset

The biggest roof boxes in town!

Our 580 litre XXL roof boxes are among the largest you can buy, and are best suited for medium to large cars, SUVs and people carriers. The capacity of this box is about the same as a large family estate car such as the Audi A6 Avant or the BMW 5-Series Touring and will comfortably store 3 to 4 standard sized suitcases.

The dimensions of our roof boxes are 205.7cm long, 80.2cm wide, 50cm tall. The total weight of contents must not exceed 75kg. The maximum rated speed is 70mph. Please note that the total weight of the box, the bars, and the contents must not exceed the manufacturers roof weight limits for your vehicle.

We want your roof box rental to be hassle-free, so on collection we will first perform some roof bar safety checks, then we fit the box to your car and show you how it all works. All our boxes have triple-locking mechanisms and open on both sides for your safety and convenience.

To buy, or to rent? That is the question.

If you are considering a roof box rental, chances are you might have already considered buying a roof box. In many cases buying a roof box is a great idea, but it can be a large investment, and you need space to store it when you aren't using it.

If you are using a roof box for just a couple of weeks each year, it would take six years to recover the cost of buying the roof box, compared to the cost of renting. You also need to factor in where you are going to store your roof box for the fifty weeks of the year it isn't being used!

Your bars or ours, we have options to suit.

If you do not have your own roof bars and your vehicle has "raised" or "integrated" roof rails, it is very likely we have bars that will fit. If your vehicle has fixing points in the roof or a completely flat roof, get in touch and we can see what we can do.

If you have your own bars, our boxes will fit most square, aero and wing blade styles less than 70mm wide and 20mm deep, but do check with us if you are concerned.

If your vehicle requires roof bars that clamp over the door frame, we will only fit boxes to Thule roof bar kits, as universal "wrap around" bars do not provide sufficient grip to hold a loaded roof box in the event of an accident.

Please note: when using your own bars they must have a minimum load rating of 75kg. If in doubt please call for advice.
