Three Reasons Why Low Loader Vans Are Called ‘The Easy Movers’

Over the years, low loader vans have firmly established themselves as ‘the easy movers’ – in other words, they’re fantastic for removals jobs and transporting heavy and large loads. A low loader van is essentially a Luton but with a lower floor. A tail lift isn’t required simply because the rear loading height is low enough to easily lift items into the van without one. Most low loaders can have tie points and rails fitted to the floors and sides, making them suitable for removals and delivery jobs.

If you’ve found yourself wondering whether or not you need a low loader van for your business, you’ve come to the right place. At Van Sales UK, we have cheap low loader van deals and a range of new low loader vans.

Here’s why they’re so popular with our commercial customers.

Low loader vans do not require a tail lift

Low loader vans don’t require a tail lift. Not only does this mean that the van offers easy loading (which is perfect for tasks such as removals and delivery jobs), but it also means that less maintenance and LOLER testing are required too. Vans with tail lifts require tail lift maintenance and LOLER inspections every six months, whereas low loaders only need routine maintenance when required. This can save both time and money.

They have lower loading height

With the above in mind, it’s important to note that low loader vans also have a lower loading height. As there’s no need for a tail lift, low loaders offer ‘easy entry’ and convenient access, making loading jobs far easier and leading to increased business efficiency and profits. Due to the ease of access and convenient loading height, low loader vans are ideal for jobs that require multiple-delivery drops.

They offer increased payload

The average low loader vans have an increased load volume, with a payload capacity of 1100kg. This makes them suitable for big jobs and ideal for fitting awkward, heavy loads that you may otherwise struggle to fit in other vans. The additional space for extra storage makes these vans particularly appealing and the best vans on the road for moving big items.

"First time using Vansaway! I was in a bit of a panic as my van broke down and I was unable to fix it. My van is my livihood, so I looked into leasing and contract. I wish I done it sooner. I spoke to Jonathan as my first point of contact. I couldn't have got any luckier having him as my support. He was absolutely fantastic, he went above and beyond to help me. He was easy to contact and would always reply when I had any concerns or questions. His knowledge on all vehicles was impeccable, which made things easier. He listened to what I wanted and needed and explained everything thoroughly help me making the right choice in plan and kept in touch throughout the entire process! He knew I was in desperate need of a van and he did not disappoint and kept his word and I was able to get my new van delivered as soon as possible. Enjoying the drive. Its great about the perks involved in having a contract hire as well! Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend, vans are just not how they use to be, so its great to have a brand new van along with the support of any engine faults things like that. A huge stress off my shoulders being sole trader."

"First time leasing with Vanaways, but have leased before. Initial contact was with Justin, who found the van I need very quickly at a competitive price. No hard sell, and seamless. Yasmine completed the admin and arranged delivery. Great service from both. Follow up calls to see if I was satisfied with van. Professional and efficient, would highly recommend."

"I recently bought a new car from this company and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Tyler and Steve C were both brilliant to deal with – friendly, professional and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. They took the time to answer all my questions and made everything straightforward and stress-free. The customer service was excellent and I never felt pressured at any point. Both Tyler and Steve C really went above and beyond to make sure everything was sorted and that I was happy with the car. I couldn’t recommend them enough and would definitely buy from them again in the future. Thanks again for such a great experience!"
