My experiences with a commercial van rental company (can't remember the name
of the company, as it was over 20 years ago) was that my first wife booked
it, and didn't properly read the contract, so after our 2000 mile long
vacation, she got stuck with a ridiculous mileage rate for everything over
1000 miles. Since this was a trip from Austin to Leadville, Colorado, with
lots of sightseeing, that ended up being about 1000-1200 miles over.

 

Your trip looks to be about 900 miles per direction, so you definitely need
to read the fine print!!

We need to rent vans in Chicago and drive to the South Carolina area.

Look for lakes around the area you intend to go like Lake Powell. Many of
the local houseboat rental firms have links to vehicle rentals in the area
on their websites since much of their customer base flys in

I'm looking to rent a couple passenger vans to take the church kids on a 
trip this summer.  Enterprise has no Vans, since they have a contract 
with Fedex/Amazon who's depleted their van fleet, and they can't get new 
vehicles like everyone else.  They claim to not even have mini-vans 
available for rental right now.  I supposedly have a reservation for 1 
15 passenger Van, but we've been burned by Enterprise in past years when 
we go to pick it up, they'll not actually have a van and try to 
substitute 2 5 passenger SUV's instead.

Hertz want's you to use their online booking site, which is setup for 
single vehicle rentals, not multiples, and they only have Minivans.  
Using the website Chat seems like they just look at the same webpage you 
do.

Am I missing any obvious places for commercial passenger van rental?  
There was a movie shoot around here over the summer, they probably 
brought in 50 or 60 12 passenger vans to haul people from parking to the 
set, but no rental companies label them anymore to see where they were 
from.
