Quality that speaks for itself
When it comes to roof boxes, not all brands are created equal. Families often ask us, “Why do you only use Thule boxes?” The answer is simple — because Thule roof boxes consistently outperform every other brand in safety, strength, and design.
At South Staffordshire Roof Box Hire, we’ve spent years helping families travel more comfortably. We’ve tested different makes, tried alternative systems, and nothing compares to the quality, durability, and ease of use that Thule delivers.
When you hire one of our Thule 470L roof boxes, you’re not just adding space to your car — you’re adding one of the most trusted travel accessories in the world.
Who are Thule?
Thule is a Swedish company that has been leading the way in car travel solutions since 1942. For over 80 years, they’ve focused on one thing: helping people transport what they care about safely, easily, and in style.
Their products are designed in Sweden and tested in some of the harshest weather conditions imaginable — snow, wind, rain, and freezing temperatures. Every design goes through extensive durability testing to make sure it can handle real-world conditions.
When you see the Thule name, you know it’s been built to last.
Designed for modern families
What makes Thule roof boxes stand out isn’t just their strength — it’s their attention to detail. Every box is built with modern travel in mind.
The Thule 470L model we supply offers generous storage without overwhelming the car. It’s large enough for suitcases, gifts, or outdoor equipment, yet compact enough to keep your vehicle aerodynamic and stable.
For families travelling over Christmas, on winter breaks, or during summer holidays, it’s the perfect balance between space, convenience, and performance.
Safety first — always
Thule has earned a reputation for creating the safest roof boxes on the market. Each model is rigorously tested under real-life conditions to meet and exceed international safety standards.
The design includes:
- Lockable dual-side openings — making it easy to access from either side while keeping your belongings secure.
- Quick-mount system (Thule PowerClick) — giving an audible “click” when it’s fitted correctly, so you always know it’s safe.
- Reinforced hinges and weather-sealed edges — to protect your gear from wind, rain, and road dirt.
At South Staffordshire Roof Box Hire, we don’t just hand you a box — we personally fit every Thule roof box to ensure it’s perfectly balanced, locked, and ready for travel.
Built to handle British weather
Whether it’s pouring with rain, snowing, or blowing a gale, Thule roof boxes are made for it. Each one is fully waterproof, resistant to UV damage, and capable of withstanding freezing temperatures without cracking or warping.
That’s especially important for winter travellers. From frosty mornings to long motorway drives in heavy rain, your belongings stay clean, dry, and safe.
Families using their Thule box during Christmas trips, ski holidays, or cold weekends away never have to worry about damp luggage again.
Aerodynamic and efficient
One of the biggest misconceptions about roof boxes is that they create wind noise and drag. Thule’s aerodynamic design solves that problem.
The sleek shape helps air flow smoothly over the box, reducing resistance and keeping fuel efficiency high. It also cuts down on wind noise, meaning a quieter, more peaceful drive.
Even on long motorway trips, you’ll barely notice it’s there — apart from the extra space inside the car, of course.
Practicality and ease of use
Thule understands that not everyone wants to spend hours fitting a roof box — and with their design, you don’t have to.
The Thule PowerClick system allows fast, secure fitting in just minutes. The box simply clicks into place on your roof bars, with built-in torque indicators that tell you when it’s tightened correctly.
Dual-side opening makes loading and unloading effortless, even when the car is parked close to walls or other vehicles. And because the lids are spring-loaded, they stay open while you pack — no holding or balancing needed.
Built to last
We’ve seen Thule roof boxes in use for years — and they just keep going. Their durability is unmatched. The outer shell is made from high-grade ABS plastic that’s lightweight but incredibly strong. The locks, hinges, and clamps are built from corrosion-resistant metal that performs well in all seasons.
Even after years of use, Thule boxes maintain their shape, shine, and performance. That’s why South Staffordshire Roof Box Hire chooses them for every customer — they’re the only boxes we’d trust on our own cars.
Customer stories that say it all
We’ve had hundreds of customers tell us that hiring a Thule roof box completely transformed their travel experience.
Lisa from Wombourne shared:
“We used to dread packing for family trips because the car filled up so quickly. The Thule box we hired was amazing — quiet, sturdy, and surprisingly spacious. Even after a week of rain, everything inside was bone dry. I wouldn’t hire any other brand.”
And David from Codsall told us:
“I’ve tried a cheaper roof box before, and it rattled the whole journey. The Thule one from South Staffordshire Roof Box Hire was totally different — solid, silent, and easy to use. Worth every penny.”
These experiences aren’t rare — they’re the standard. Once families try Thule, they rarely want to travel without it again.
