Moving a group of 8, 9, or 10 people around Chicago usually means two cars, two drivers, and a parking headache. A FamilyVan Chicago 10-passenger van keeps everyone in one vehicle, for one simple flat rate of $110 per day — well below what most Chicago competitors charge for their bigger, emptier vans.
A 10-seat van is the sweet spot for group travel: big enough for sports teams, wedding parties, and multi-family road trips, but smaller and easier to drive than a 15-passenger bus. There is no special license required — any driver 25+ with a standard driver's license can get behind the wheel.
Our vans seat 10 adults in actual full-size seats with real legroom, plus a cargo area behind the last row that swallows suitcases, sports gear, and strollers.

FamilyVan Chicago runs a fleet of 6 full-size passenger vans:

Every van is cleaned, inspected, and road-trip-ready before each rental. Prefer a specific van? Mention it in the booking notes — we'll hold it when available.
Local, not a chain. We're based in Melrose Park — 10 minutes from O'Hare — so airport pickups are fast and cheap.
Flat $110/day. Competitors charge $120–$170+ for similar full-size vans. Our price doesn't spike on weekends.
Online booking in minutes. Pick your dates, pay the $500 deposit, sign digitally — done.
Airport delivery. Flying in with a group? We'll bring the van to O'Hare or Midway for $160 round trip (delivery + return) — no shuttle buses, no rental counters.
Real humans. Call or text +1 (773) 872-6655 — you'll talk to the person who hands you the keys, not a call center.
How much does it cost to rent a 10-passenger van in Chicago?
+
Our flat rate is $110 per day, any day of the week. A weekend runs $330, a full week $770. A $500 refundable deposit is required to book, released after a clean return.
Do I need a special license to drive a 10-passenger van?
+
No. Any licensed driver 25 or older with a standard driver's license can drive our vans. No CDL required.
How many suitcases fit in a 10-passenger van?
+
With all 10 seats in use, the rear cargo area holds roughly 6–8 large suitcases plus carry-ons. Traveling with fewer passengers? Fold or remove a bench and fit twice that.
Can you deliver the van to O'Hare or Midway airport?
+
Yes — $160 round-trip delivery (delivery and return) to either airport. The van meets you at the terminal; you skip the rental counter entirely.
What's the booking deposit?
+
$500, charged at booking and refunded after the van returns clean, undamaged, and on time. It is the same for everyone — no exceptions, no surcharges.
Do you offer long-term or monthly 10-passenger van rentals?
+
Yes. Ask about our weekly and monthly rates — multi-week rentals get priority availability.
What is the mileage policy?
+
Every rental day includes 250 miles. Extra miles are $0.35 each, tallied at return — there is no hard cap on total miles.
Is a 10-passenger van easier to drive than a 15-passenger van?
+
Yes. Our 10-passenger vans are shorter, turn tighter, and fit in standard parking spots. Any licensed driver 25+ with a regular license can drive one — no CDL, no commercial training.
How far in advance should I book a 10-passenger van?
+
For weekends, holidays, and wedding season we recommend booking 1–2 weeks ahead — groups tend to travel on the same dates. Off-peak weekdays are often available same-day.
