A Luton van has a boxed load area behind the cab, which extends over the top of the cab, providing additional storage space. The main difference between a Luton and a box van is that a Luton utilises the area above the driver and passenger cab. In contrast, the load space of a box van stops where the cab begins. Typical use includes removals where large, heavy objects need to be transported.
When you’re looking for a used Luton or Box van, there are several things you’ll need to consider. For example, will you need a tail lift or low-loader to get heavier goods in and out of the van? Do you deliver in low light situations, when lighting in the load area would be useful? You may also want to ensure the load space has restraints to keep goods secure, or a tow bar if you plan to attach a trailer.
Among our used Luton and Box van stock are a variety of familiar makes and models, all of which have been adapted for their purpose. The Transit Luton, for example, is both durable and highly drivable, with more recent models incorporating an array of clever features.
The Citroën Relay, meanwhile, is available in two sizes as both a curtainside or solid Luton van. The latest model has a loading volume of up to 20 cubic metres, an LED interior light, hard-wearing plywood flooring and a writing panel.
Other options include the reliable and comfortable Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and the spacious Volkswagen Crafter. Whichever you choose, you can be sure that when you purchase from Vanwise, you’re buying a high quality vehicle that’s been thoroughly checked by trained technicians.
