A Chevrolet Express Cargo van rental built for the big haul

Drive an Express Cargo

A Chevrolet Express Cargo van rental puts a proven full-size workhorse in your hands, with rear-wheel drive, a standard 4.3L V6, and an eight-speed automatic. It's a true cargo van: two seats up front and a dedicated cargo body behind you. Browse more Chevrolet rentals on Turo if you want a different ride from the same badge.

On Turo, you book the exact van you want from a local vehicle owner and plan pickup around your move, project, or gear haul. Compare cargo van rentals for hauling to find the wheelbase and engine that fit your load.

V6 or V8 muscle for heavy loads

The Express Cargo comes standard with a 4.3L V6 that makes 276 hp and 298 lb-ft of torque. The 2500 and 3500 versions offer an available 6.6L V8 with 401 hp and 464 lb-ft. Either engine sends power to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic (the V8 gets a heavy-duty version).

Room for the whole move

The regular-wheelbase Express Cargo gives you 239.4 cubic feet of cargo space on a 135-inch wheelbase. Step up to the 155-inch extended wheelbase, and that grows to 283.6 cubic feet (room for plenty more boxes). Payload starts at 3,280 lbs on the 2500 regular wheelbase with the V6 and climbs to 4,280 lbs on the 3500.

Those numbers set your limit, so stay within the van's rated capacity on every trip. Turo does not allow loading any vehicle beyond its rated capacity. Configurations differ from van to van, so check the listing for the wheelbase and version before you start packing.

Safety tech on standby

Every 2026 Express Cargo comes with a rear vision camera, and its display sits right in the rearview mirror. StabiliTrak, Hill Start Assist, four-wheel antilock disc brakes, and tire pressure monitoring also come standard. Together, they help you stay steady and aware with a full load behind you.

Some vans add even more support: Forward Collision Alert, Lane Departure Warning, Side Blind Zone Alert, and Rear Park Assist are all available. Equipment varies by listing, so check the features on the van you're eyeing if any of these matter to you.

Stand out with an Express Cargo

The Express Cargo shines on apartment moves, furniture pickups, event or band gear runs, and DIY projects. With just two seats, the whole van stays focused on cargo, so you can skip a bigger moving truck when your load fits. If your crew needs seats too, explore full-size van rentals on Turo.

Top Express Cargo features

Nearly three decades of heritage

Three things set the Express Cargo apart: nearly three decades of heritage, body-on-frame toughness, and work-ready cabin details.

The 2026 Express Cargo carries a nameplate that dates back to the 1996 model year. Chevrolet moved the van to its current platform in 2003, and it still builds the Express in Wentzville, Missouri.

For your trip, that means you're behind the wheel of a van with a long, steady track record. The layout stays simple and familiar, with two seats up front and an open cargo area behind you. Fewer surprises mean more of your attention stays on the load and the road ahead.

Body-on-frame toughness

The Express Cargo rides on body-on-frame construction, with the body mounted to a separate frame. Chevrolet offers it in 2500 and 3500 versions, and the 3500 is the heavier-duty pick with the higher payload rating.

For you, that means a van built around heavy work: boxes, furniture, tools, and gear. The version shapes what the van can carry, so check the listing to see whether you're booking a 2500 or a 3500. Then match your load to that van's rated payload before the first box goes in.

Work-ready cabin details

Small details make a big difference on moving day, and the Express Cargo has a few worth knowing. A 120-volt outlet gives you a place to plug in on the go. Six floor D-rings give you solid anchor points to strap down furniture, crates, and gear.

The passenger-side door swings out as standard, and some vans have an optional sliding door instead. Check the listing to see which door your van has, since it changes how you'll load from the curb. Plan your packing order around that door, and moving day gets a lot smoother.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Express Cargo

decorative separator

Get to know your Express Cargo

Check your van's configuration, give yourself extra space on the road, and know the rules before you load up. Here's what to keep in mind.

Express Cargo listings vary in wheelbase, engine, and side door, so check each detail on the listing before you book. That way, the van you pick up matches the job you've planned.

Need passenger seats instead? A Chevrolet Tahoe or Chevrolet Suburban fits the whole crew, and a Chevrolet Corvette covers the fun once the work's done.

Comparing cargo-ready vans? The Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter are worth a look, too.

Express Cargo driving tips

The Express Cargo drives best when you plan ahead and respect its size and limits. Keep these tips in mind:

Give yourself extra room to turn and brake, especially in the 155-inch extended wheelbase.

Use the rear vision camera display in the rearview mirror when you back up.

Secure your cargo to the six floor D-rings before you pull away.

Stay within the van's rated payload on every trip.

Watch overhead clearance at parking garages, drive-thrus, and low bridges.

Do not tow anything. Towing is not permitted on Turo, even if the van has a hitch.

Skip delivery work in California, Minnesota, New York, and Oregon, where Turo prohibits professional uses like package or food delivery.

How much does it cost to rent an Express Cargo?

The price of an Express Cargo rental depends on the model year, configuration, trip length, and whether you choose delivery. Check the listing for the current price and trip total.

Longer trips can bring the daily cost down, with trip-length discounts at three days, one week, two weeks, three weeks, and one month. For trips of 30 days or more, look into long-term car rental on Turo. Book a non-refundable trip four or more days ahead, and you'll get 10% off.

Frequently asked questions about Express Cargo rentals on Turo

What documents do you need to rent an Express Cargo on Turo?

To rent an Express Cargo on Turo, bring a physical, valid driver's license, either permanent or temporary. Photocopies and learner's permits don't count, and an international driving permit can't stand in for your license.

What type of driver's license do you need to rent an Express Cargo?

A standard, valid driver's license works for an Express Cargo on Turo. Vehicles that require a commercial license aren't eligible for listing in the US, so you won't need one to drive an Express Cargo.

How old do you need to be to rent an Express Cargo?

The minimum age to rent an Express Cargo on Turo depends on the van's vehicle class and value. It's 18 for standard vehicles and 21 for vehicles with a market value over $20,000.

Deluxe vehicles require guests to be at least 25, and Super Deluxe, Classic, and Specialty vehicles require 30. Guests aged 18–24 pay a young driver fee on an Express Cargo trip.

Do you need your own insurance to rent an Express Cargo?

No. You don't need your own insurance to book an Express Cargo on Turo, and you can choose a protection plan at checkout.

Are there discounts on Express Cargo rentals?

Yes. Express Cargo trips can qualify for trip-length discounts at three days, one week, two weeks, three weeks, and one month. Book a non-refundable Express Cargo trip four or more days ahead, and you'll save 10%.

Can you rent an Express Cargo long term?

Yes. You can book an Express Cargo for 30 days or more, and monthly trips can qualify for a trip-length discount. It's a smart fit for a long renovation or a move with several stops.

Does an Express Cargo rental come with unlimited mileage?

It depends on the listing. Distance limits vary from one Express Cargo to the next, so check the distance included on the listing before you book.

Can someone else drive the Express Cargo?

Yes. Request additional drivers for your Express Cargo trip in the Turo app. Each driver needs their own approved Turo account and must meet the age requirements, and the primary driver handles pickup and return.

Can you use an Express Cargo for a move or deliveries?

Yes for moves: an Express Cargo works well for hauling your own furniture, boxes, and gear. When your load fits inside, it can be simpler than a moving truck. Towing is not permitted, and Turo prohibits professional uses like food or package delivery in California, Minnesota, New York, and Oregon.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

  2. For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
