How It Works

Hire a roof box in five simple steps

Everything you need to know about hiring a roof box — from booking to returning.

Step by step

Your journey from booking to the open road

1

Find your nearest hub

Use our location finder to search by postcode or address. Hubs are independent local businesses across the UK. Filter by the services you need — fitting, delivery, or box type.

2

Choose your box and dates

Pick your collection and return dates, then choose a box that fits your car and your trip — hubs list specific makes and models with capacity and dimensions, at prices they set themselves. Add fitting or delivery if the hub offers them. Pay securely online — your booking is confirmed instantly.

3

Collect your box (or have it delivered)

Visit the hub on your collection date and show your QR code. If you've booked fitting, the hub fits the box to your car and checks everything is secure. If you've booked delivery, the hub will bring the box to your door.

4

Load up and go

Skis, camping gear, family-holiday luggage — the box carries what the boot cannot. Drive off knowing everything is fitted properly.

5

Return the box (or have it collected)

When you're back, return the box to the same hub by your return date. If you've booked delivery, the hub will collect the box from your door. We'll send you a reminder the day before it's due back.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

+Which box fits my car?

A roof box mounts to roof bars, and each product listing shows dimensions and bar compatibility. If you are unsure, your hub can advise — or book their fitting service and let them sort it.

+Do I need roof bars?

Yes — a roof box mounts to roof bars, not directly to the roof. If you do not have bars, participating hubs can advise on what fits your car.

+What is the fitting service?

Participating hubs will fit the box to your car for you and check everything is secure before you drive away. The price is set by the hub and shown at checkout.

+Can I have the box delivered?

Some hubs offer local delivery — they drive to your address to deliver and collect the box. Availability and price are set by each hub.

+What if I need the box for longer?

You can extend your booking directly from your account. Just log in, go to your booking, and click Extend.

+Who am I hiring from?

The hub — a local independent business that owns and maintains its own boxes. The hub is the merchant of record, so your payment goes to them directly.
