Why Rent With Us
Real advantages, not just promises.
When you reserve a van, that van is yours. We never overbook and never cancel your reservation on you.
Every van is professionally serviced and inspected on a regular schedule, so you can drive with confidence.
Share the driving — add as many extra drivers as your trip needs, at no additional cost.
FamilyVan Chicago is a true family business — father, mother, and son — who moved to Chicago after leaving Ukraine in 2022 and built this company from the ground up.
We started with nothing but a willingness to work hard, and grew this business one trip, one happy family, one road trip at a time. Every van in our fleet is looked after personally, because our name — and our family's reputation — is on every rental.
When you rent from a family business, you're not just another booking number — you're dealing directly with the people who maintain the vans, answer the messages, and stand behind every trip. That's why our customers keep coming back.
Word has spread well beyond the city — families and groups from Naperville, Schaumburg, Evanston, Oak Park, and Skokie regularly make the trip into Chicago to pick up a van from us, because a spacious, comfortable passenger van built for group travel isn't always easy to find nearby. Whether it's family transportation for a reunion, a weekend road trip, or business travelers who need everyone in one vehicle, our vans are built around getting people there together.
Our passenger minivans comfortably seat up to 10 people with plenty of room for luggage. Perfect for group travel — whether it's a family road trip, corporate outing, airport transfer, or a tour.
Available for local trips and nationwide travel. We deliver vans to O'Hare (ORD) and Midway (MDW) airports — just ask when booking.
Modern interior, comfortable seats, climate control. Ideal for groups of any kind.
Rental Requirements
What you need to bring and know before pickup.
A valid driver's license and proof of insurance are required at pickup. International visitors must present either an international driver's license or an English translation of their license, along with their passport.
Drivers must be 25 or older. Renters aged 21–24 may qualify with a valid Commercial Driver's License (CDL) or with management approval under special circumstances.
Renters must carry valid Primary Liability Insurance from a major carrier, with coverage that extends to rental vehicles. We're unable to accept coverage from carriers whose policies exclude rental use — if you're unsure whether your policy qualifies, contact us before booking.
A $400 refundable security deposit is authorized at pickup and returned within 3 business days after drop-off, minus any tolls, fines, or damage.
Every rental includes 250 free miles per day (e.g. 2,500 free miles on a 10-day rental). Additional miles are billed at $0.35/mile.
Up to 2 additional drivers are included free of charge (3 total, including the primary driver). Extra drivers beyond that are $20/day each. All additional drivers must meet the same license and insurance requirements as the primary driver.
Questions about any of this? Call us at (858) 241-1035 or email zamotatrade@gmail.com before you book.
Cancellation Policy
Cancel within 24 hours of booking for a full refund of your $200 deposit. If our card processor charges us a fee to refund your payment, that fee is deducted from your refund.
From the end of the free cancellation window up until 72 hours before pickup, the $200 deposit is retained as a cancellation fee.
Reservations made or confirmed within 72 hours of pickup can't be cancelled, changed, or refunded, and the full rental amount is charged. Once we confirm a van to you this close to pickup, we turn away every other customer waiting for that same vehicle — so we're unable to release it back.
All cancellations must be submitted by email to zamotatrade@gmail.com so we have a written record.
Payment & Deposit
A $200 reservation deposit is charged at the time of booking to hold your van. The remaining rental balance is invoiced to your email approximately 3 days before pickup.
A separate $400 refundable security deposit is authorized at pickup and released within 3 business days after return, minus any tolls, fines, or damage.
Pickup & Return
Pickup starts at 7:00 AM daily. A rental day is a 24-hour period (7 AM to 7 AM), with a 1-hour grace period on return. Late returns beyond the grace period are billed as an additional full day.
We deliver to O'Hare (ORD) and Midway (MDW) for a $120 flat delivery fee. Select this option when booking, or call us to arrange.
Vehicle Condition & Prohibited Use
Smoking and vaping are not permitted in any of our vans; a cleaning fee applies if detected on return. Pets are welcome, but the van must come back free of pet hair and odor, or a pet-cleaning fee will apply.
Any tolls, parking tickets, red-light camera or speeding violations incurred during your rental are the renter's responsibility and will be deducted from the security deposit, along with a standard administration fee.
Accidents & Roadside Help
Any accident, regardless of severity, must be reported to us right away at (858) 241-1035 and to the police — a police report is required for all incidents.
If your van has a mechanical issue that isn't the result of misuse, call us immediately — we'll arrange towing and get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
Early Return & Extensions
If you return your van earlier than the date and time agreed in your reservation, you won't receive a refund for the unused portion — the full rental rate for the entire period still applies. This keeps things fair and equitable for all our customers.
Need more time? Call us at (858) 241-1035 — we'll let you know if an extension is possible. If approved, the full estimated balance for the updated reservation must be paid before the extension is confirmed. Reach out as early as possible so we have time to work it out.
