Newport is a city in south Wales in the county of Monmouthshire. It's one of the largest settlements in the area and home to a number of large civil service departments and businesses. Newport also has one of the premier conference centres in the UK. This growth has helped to offset the decline of the steel industry, historically a major employer in the area.

Newport is close to the M4 and is also served by the A449, which provides a route to the West Midlands. The town is also served by the West Coast main line, providing fast rail services to Bristol, London and other major cities.

Van hire is readily available in Newport, with several companies providing all types of van for hire:

• Medium / short wheelbase vans - e.g. Ford Transit, Vauxhall Vivaro, Renault Trafic, Volkswagen Transporter
• Small vans - e.g. Vauxhall Combo, Ford Transit Connect, VW Caddy
• Large / long wheelbase vans - e.g. Mercedes Sprinter XLWB, Ford Transit LWB, Renault Master, LDV Maxus
• Luton vans & box vans (3.5 tonne / 3.5t).
