Restore verifyonly is not fulfilling the need, but due to space problem on test server it has to be use. Anything better then it?

For checking the consistency of full backups of production databases we are copying them on test server and restore them then drop them by a job. But one database among them is as much large that it alone causes space problems on test server. Even we executed the entire process(copy,restore & drop) for it after dropping all other databases. So due to space problems we have to use Restore verifyonly command for this particular database. But it is recommended in online articles that Restore verify only checks for only header of backup file. (or for checksum also). Is there any other option or approach,I should follow?  Thanks in advance.
