The start of a new year always brings one familiar thought: “We’ll travel more this year.” Whether that means long weekends, family holidays, or a road trip somewhere new, getting organised early is key — and that includes thinking about space and budget.
If you’ve ever looked at the cost of buying a roof box, you’ll know how expensive it can be — not to mention the hassle of storing it afterwards. That’s why more people than ever are turning to roof box hire instead.
Here’s how hiring a Thule box from West Midlands Roof Box Hire helps you save space, money, and stress all year round.
1. Buying Isn’t Always the Bargain It Seems
At first glance, owning a roof box might sound like good value — but once you add up the real costs, it often isn’t.
A quality Thule box typically costs between £500–£700, plus roof bars (£100–£200) and fitting accessories. Then there’s cleaning, maintenance, and storage to consider.
If you only take a few trips a year, it could take a decade to get your money’s worth.
Hiring gives you the same benefits — premium Thule quality — for a fraction of the cost and none of the hassle.
2. All the Benefits Without the Storage
Roof boxes are bulky and awkward to store, especially during the winter. Hiring eliminates that problem completely.
You pick it up, we fit it securely, and after your trip, you simply drop it back. We clean it, check it, and store it safely for next time.
It’s the easiest way to enjoy extra car space without giving up half your garage.
3. Clear, Affordable Prices
Our prices are simple and transparent:
- £85 for one week
- £125 for two weeks
That includes fitting, removal, and cleaning. There are no deposits, hidden costs, or surprise extras — just straightforward value from a trusted local company.
Whether you’re taking a UK staycation, a ski holiday, or just visiting family, our goal is to make it as affordable and easy as possible.
4. Why Thule Makes the Difference
We only use Thule roof boxes because they’re the best in the business. Built to last, quiet on the road, and aerodynamic to help with fuel efficiency — these boxes are designed for families who care about both safety and comfort.
Thule’s engineering gives you peace of mind that your luggage is safe, dry, and secure, no matter how far you travel.
5. Family-Friendly and Flexible
Many of our customers are families who need extra space once or twice a year — at Christmas, Easter, or during the summer holidays.
Hiring makes it easy to choose the right size for each trip. Whether you need our 470L box for weekend getaways or the larger 580L model for long holidays, we’ve got you covered.
6. Local Service, National Quality
At West Midlands Roof Box Hire, we combine local service with national-level quality. Our team in Tamworth is here to make your experience as quick and simple as possible.
You can book, collect, and be ready to drive within 15 minutes — fitted and checked by professionals who know what they’re doing.
That’s one of the reasons we’re trusted by families across the West Midlands.
7. Plan Ahead and Save Even More
If you already know your travel dates for Easter or summer 2025, booking early ensures availability and the best price.
Our Thule boxes are in high demand around peak times — so reserving in advance guarantees you won’t miss out.
A little planning now could make your next family trip smoother, cheaper, and far more enjoyable.
