Where’s the Reindeer?
December 7, 2015 3:47 pmWe all know that Father Christmas spends the year caring for his reindeer to ensure they are in top condition for the annual trip around the world. Harnessed to his sleigh, they tow him and presents for all the children to the furthest corners of the globe on just one evening a year.
Few of us have the resources to care for a herd of reindeer, a pack of husky dogs or a pony for that matter. So what options do we have when we need an occasional tow for getting an unusually heavy load transported? We could hire the services of ‘a man with a van’ or we could hire a suitably powerful 4×4 tow vehicle to get the job done.
A 4×4 tow car has been designed to be robust and strong in order to safely pull a trailer, caravan or horsebox on public roads. It means that you can have everything you need packed up and ready to go as soon as you’ve attached it securely to the tow bar and checked the lights. You can make as many journey’s as you need to get the job done and then return the vehicle for them to take care of the on-going care and maintenance. No carrots required!
If you are regularly moving bulky items around, it could be wise to invest in your own 4×4 vehicle, but if your needs are occasional, 4×4 tow car hire could prove to be a more convenient and affordable option. If you hire from a reputable company, your hire car will be well-maintained, it will come with a set mileage allowance and with insurance to cover you for the hire period.
Need a Tow?
It’s a fair distance from Lapland, but let’s consider the North of England and potential reasons to be considering tow car hire. Leeds has been confirmed as the 2016 host of the British Triathlon Series and as an increasingly popular sport many entrants, support teams and observers will be heading up to get involved. The city is home to Olympic champion Alistair Brownlee and his brother Jonathon and many other competitors will be hoping to achieve personal bests for their efforts in the events. If you are competing, then a trailer full of bikes, tools, parts and kit may also be making its way to Leeds.
You could be carefully packaging and transporting your paintings, crafts and other creations for an exhibition in one of North Yorkshire’s many art galleries. Alternatively you could need to move the props and set for a show to one of the region’s theatres in preparation for a show stopping performance. When space is a challenge, a trailer and tow car can help.
Could it be time to transport your boat or caravan to or from Bridlington, Staithes or one of Yorkshire’s other coastal resorts? From over-wintering a vessel in dry storage to setting up camp ready for the school holidays, tow car hire can play a vital role in achieving your plans.
Maybe you are looking for the ultimate adventure weekend with friends and are heading out to the North Yorkshire moors with tents, climbing gear, hiking boots and provisions. Rather than trying to squeeze everyone and all the luggage into a conventional car, a tow vehicle and trailer could give everyone a more comfortable ride.
If you have plans for the coming year which could be made possible with tow car hire, Leeds based 4×4 Vehicle Hire can assist. We might not have reindeer, but we’ve helped many individuals to achieve their business and leisure goals, by providing the right vehicle for the job.
