Which vehicle do you need?
Because the vehicle is dedicated, you pay for the van or truck, not per item — so the only question is what fits. A small van takes up to 450kg (1.2m × 1m × 1m) and covers most urgent documents, boxes and single-pallet jobs from Nottingham to London. Larger loads step up through long-wheelbase and Luton vans to 6 truck sizes, up to articulated.
