Budget has launched in four Tesco locations so far – Harlow (Essex), Haverhill (Suffolk), Wembley (London) and Hodge Hill (Birmingham). Two new hubs are now scheduled to open at London Tesco branches in March – Yeading and Waltham Abbey.

Budget car hire cabins will be situated in the car parks of the selected Tesco stores, and will operate seven days a week offering a wide choice of vehicles available.

Commenting on the partnership, Mark Servodidio, managing director, Budget UK, said: “At Budget, we’re dedicated to offering our customers a flexible and convenient service that is as efficient as possible, and this partnership is further evidence of our commitment to making our customers lives easier. More than ever, people want flexibility and practicality, so being able to pick up a car for your weekend away at the same place you can pick up all your last minute essentials is ideal.”
