A blank canvas for every big haul

Drive a Transit Cargo

A Ford Transit Cargo van rental gives you up to 487.3 cu ft of open cargo space and a max payload of 5,103 lbs. It's two seats, one wide-open cargo area, and enough muscle for moves, deliveries, and gear that won't fit in a trunk.

The Transit Cargo is a two-seat work van that drives more like a car than its size suggests, thanks to a standard 10-speed automatic. Browse cargo van rentals on Turo to find the roof height and length that fit your load.

Turo is a car rental marketplace. You book your Transit Cargo from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Load up, lock up, and get the job done on your schedule.

Cargo space

487.3 cu ft

Room to stand, space to stack

Size the Transit Cargo to the job with low, medium, and high roof heights, plus regular, long, and extended lengths. Cargo volume runs 246.7–487.3 cu ft by configuration. A high-roof version gives you 81.5 in of interior height (that's 6 ft 9.5 in), so most adults can stand upright inside.

Muscle for heavy loads

The Transit Cargo backs up all that space with serious pulling power. The standard 3.5L PFDi V6 makes 275 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, and the available 3.5L EcoBoost V6 makes 300 hp and 400 lb-ft. Either way, a standard 10-speed automatic handles the shifting, so you can keep your focus on the road.

When it's properly equipped, the Transit Cargo carries a max payload of 5,103 lbs and tows up to 6,900 lbs. That's room for heavy furniture, stacks of inventory, or a trailer of equipment behind you. All-wheel drive is available, too — check the listing to see which drivetrain your van has.

A cockpit built for long workdays

Long days behind the wheel go easier when the tech works with you. The 2026 Transit Cargo comes standard with SYNC 4 and a 12-in center screen for maps, music, and calls. An 8-in digital cluster keeps speed and key readouts in your line of sight.

Push-button start means one less thing to dig for when your arms are full of boxes. Hop in, press the button, and roll to the next stop without fumbling for a key. Tech and equipment can differ on older model years, so check the listing for the details of the van you're booking.

Stand out with a Transit Cargo

When the job outgrows a trunk, a Transit Cargo is the move. Book one for moving day, weekend deliveries, hauling event gear, or covering small-business overflow when your shop runs out of room. To see the rest of the lineup, browse every Ford rental on Turo.

Top Transit Cargo features

decorative separator

Standard driver-assist

These three features make the Transit Cargo a smart pick for work trips, moves, and big hauls.

The 2026 Transit Cargo comes with Co-Pilot360 as standard, so you get a few extra sets of eyes on every drive. Auto high beams switch between high and low beams for you on dark roads. The Lane-Keeping System helps you stay in your lane, which counts for a lot in a van this size.

Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking watches the road ahead and can apply the brakes if it detects a potential collision. It's a helpful backup in stop-and-go traffic or on busy delivery routes, but you're still the one driving. Equipment can vary by year, so check the listing for your van.

Power and connectivity on the go

Some Transit Cargo vans double as a mobile workspace. Available Pro Power Onboard gives you mobile power right from the van for tools, lights, or gear at a job site or event. No more hunting for an outlet when the work happens far from one.

An available 5G Wi-Fi hotspot keeps up to 10 devices online, so you and your helper can stay connected between stops. That means routes, invoices, and playlists all keep loading while you work. Availability of both features varies by listing, so check the vehicle details before you book if you need power or Wi-Fi for your trip.

Two seats, all business

With just two seats up front, the Transit Cargo dedicates the entire rear to your cargo. There are no rear rows to fold or remove — you get an open floor from the seatbacks to the back doors. It's a clean, simple layout for boxes, furniture, equipment, and inventory.

The real advantage is choice, with low, medium, and high roof heights paired with regular, long, and extended lengths. A shorter, lower van suits a single-room move. For tall items or all-day loading, a high-roof, extended-length van gives you the most room to work.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Transit Cargo

decorative separator

Get to know your Transit Cargo

A little prep goes a long way with a van this size. Here's how the Transit Cargo fits into the lineup, how to drive it with confidence, and what shapes the price.

The Transit Cargo is a work-focused van, with two seats up front and an open cargo area behind them. It's the pick when your load matters more than your passenger count.

If you're moving a group instead of boxes, a Ford Transit passenger rental gives you the same nameplate with seats in back. For a road trip with SUV comfort and room for luggage, look at a Ford Expedition rental or a Ford Explorer rental.

Transit Cargo driving tips

A Transit Cargo handles well, but its size and load change how you drive. Keep these tips in mind:

Check your roof height before you pull into a parking garage, drive-thru, or other low-clearance spot.

Load heavy items low and forward, close to the front of the cargo area.

Secure your cargo with straps or tie-downs so nothing shifts when you brake.

Swing wider on turns, since a long van needs more room than a car.

Use your mirrors and any backup aids every time you reverse or change lanes.

How much does it cost to rent a Transit Cargo?

The cost to rent a Transit Cargo depends on the model year, configuration, trip length, extras, and delivery. Each listing shows a daily price, and you'll see the full trip total before you book.

Compare the trip total, not just the daily price, so extras and delivery don't surprise you. Longer trips are often discounted, so if your project runs for weeks or months, check out long-term car rental on Turo.

  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.
