About us

A team with a passion for service

At DDV Automotive Group, our team of eight is ready to help you every day from our branches in Ostend and Vichte. Our goal is simple: to offer reliable service from start to finish. We help you choose the right vehicle, guide you through pick-up and return, and remain available by phone 24/7 if you need assistance on the road. You can pay securely online in advance or directly at one of our locations when collecting your vehicle.

Our fleet consists of recent, fully insured vehicles, all less than four years old. Whether you need a compact city car, a spacious family car or a minibus, you’ll find a suitable option at DDV. We also offer vans in different sizes, from smaller models for a quick move to larger vans for household goods, equipment or building materials. Planning a move? We can also provide practical moving supplies, such as protective blankets, moving boxes and pallets.

Complete service tailored to you

Does your company suddenly need a replacement vehicle? Or would an extra van help during your busy periods? Suppliers and courier companies can come to us for last-minute reservations.

Heading to a party or company event, or planning a comfortable road trip? Then take a look at our luxury car rental. We have models from several premium brands, and if you’d rather sit back and enjoy the ride, you can hire a chauffeur to go with it.

Need to move something safely and easily? From furniture lifts to car transporters, we have the right equipment for the job. You can rent a car trailer for a short period or a longer project, depending on what you need to transport. From smaller equipment to heavier loads, we’ll help you choose the right model. Prefer an enclosed trailer? That’s possible too.
