Exeter residents regularly travel for Devon coast breaks, Dartmoor adventures and long-distance UK journeys — and car boot space can vanish quickly. Whether you’re in St Thomas, Heavitree, Pinhoe, Alphington, Topsham or surrounding villages, bulky luggage, prams, camping gear and sports equipment often overload the car. Hiring a roof box provides a simple, flexible way to add extra storage without owning one permanently.
Exeter is a key South West hub, with direct access to the M5, A30, A38 and routes leading to Cornwall, Somerset, Dorset and beyond. Whether you’re heading for the beaches of South Devon, Dartmoor National Park or further across the UK, extra roof capacity helps keep the interior tidy and journeys far more comfortable for families.
Seasonal travel demand is strong. Summer brings busy trips to holiday parks, coastal resorts and campsites packed with beach gear, tents and multiple bags. Spring and autumn weekends often involve countryside walks, cycling trips and short stays requiring extra clothing and outdoor kit. Winter journeys — including festive visits, airport runs and long-distance family trips — regularly exceed standard boot space.
Hiring a roof box in Exeter offers a practical, cost-effective alternative to buying one. With local rentals available across the area, collection is straightforward, installation takes minutes and busy journeys become easier to manage. Whether you’re planning a Devon holiday, Cornish road trip or long UK drive, a roof box ensures you have the space you need.
