It isn't mandatory, but it's very helpful if there's hardly any parking outside your building. You can apply for one with your town or municipality; the lead time varies by location. In many towns you can also hire a service provider to handle the application and signs.

Some rental companies offer vans or trucks with a tail lift, which is handy for washing machines, fridges or heavy wardrobes. Whether a vehicle has one is stated in the description; otherwise ask the rental company.

As early as possible, especially at the turn of the month, in summer and at the start of the university term. That's when vans are most in demand. Check the cancellation terms in case your moving date changes.
