The Best Vans For Small Businesses

There is a wide range of options when it comes to choosing a van for your business needs. Some of the main factors when choosing a van for a small business are payload, fuel efficiency and reliability. One cost-effective option is to choose a second-hand van from a reliable manufacturer, with a large number of makes and models available depending on a business’s specific requirements.

For some further information on the different options available when choosing a van for a small business, read more below.

Large Cargo Van

One of the main considerations for small businesses when choosing a van is the amount of cargo space. For small businesses that transport large amounts of equipment for trade use, large cargo vans are a popular choice. Vans such as a Ford Transit L2 H2 or a Peugeot Boxer L2 H2 present a reliable and fuel-efficient option for the transport of large payloads.

Luton and Low Loader Vans

The large payload offered by Luton vans means they are a good choice for businesses offering home and office removals services. Low loader vans are similar to Luton vans but provide easier access to load items. For this reason, low loader vans are also well-suited to removal companies or businesses which regularly transport heavy and difficult-to-move items. The low floor at the back of the van reduces the need to use extra equipment when moving items. A van such as a Fiat Ducato L3 Low Loader can be a reliable asset to a removal company providing a reliable and spacious option.

Combi Van

Combi vans provide an efficient option when transporting both equipment and a team of people to a site. Additionally, a combi van is a versatile vehicle which can be used for both business and personal use. The Citroen Berlingo Crew Van is a practical and versatile option for small businesses.

Electric Vans

Presenting an environmentally friendly option electric vans are becoming increasingly popular with small businesses for a number of reasons. One of these is that many cities have an exemption from congestion charges for electric vehicles. If a lot of business is carried out in city centres this can have a significant impact on business costs. For small businesses offering delivery services, this can be especially useful. The Ford e-Transit L2 H2 is a popular electric van for small businesses.

"Found these guys online and was a little bit wary to buy a new van from someone I hadn't heard of. From the off, the first phone call was professional and gave me all the information that I needed, Theo was great, helpful and I proceeded to order my new van, Paige sorted the paperwork quickly and efficiently and within 10 days I had my new van delivered! The price was very competitive and all parts of the transaction were easy and hassle free, wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys, Thank you so much for a really good experience."

"I was looking for a good deal on a van online and then came across Van away, at first I was a bit sceptical but later went ahead and bought a Peugeot boxer on an unbeatable price online. The sell team were fantastic all the way and very helpful to say the least. I will highly recommend Van away to anybody that's looking for a van of any kind. Thanks Van Away for your first class service and I will be looking forward to a future deal."

"Just purchased a 2nd van through Vanaways to add to our company fleet. Steve Catley was helpful, communicative and informative all the way through the process. We would definitely use Vanaways again, and would not hesitate to recommend them."

"Paige was outstanding in her responsiveness to what presented as a serious problem for our company. The finance company used by her company caused unnecessary and significant delays in the delivery of our van - the pain of which was mitigated somewhat by Paige's proactive communication, informative and realistic communication and very professional demeanour. I'd recommend her and she meant our view of Vanaways was overall positive."
