Van and Light Commercial Transport
Whether you have bought a van at auction, need a fleet vehicle relocated, or have a broken-down commercial vehicle to recover, our carriers move all types of vans and light commercial vehicles. Running vans can be driven onto a transporter; non-running or accident-damaged vans are loaded with winch or crane equipment. Moving a van on a transporter rather than driving it saves fuel, mileage, and wear — and means you don't need to insure and drive an unfamiliar vehicle home.
Auction and Dealer Van Purchases
Bought a van online or at a commercial auction? A transporter collects it from the auction house or dealer and delivers it to your yard or address. Give the collection site as much notice as possible and make sure your release paperwork is ready so the carrier can load without delay.
Non-Running Vans and Recovery
Vans that won't start, have failed an MOT, or have been in an accident can still be moved. Carriers with low-loaders and winches handle non-runners and recovery jobs. Mark the van as non-running when you post your job so the carrier brings the right equipment.
Larger Vans and Luton Bodies
Larger panel vans, Luton box vans, and tail-lift vans can be taller and heavier than a standard car transporter allows. Specialist operators use the right trailer or a drive-on service with a qualified driver. Give accurate height, length, and weight when posting your job so you get accurate quotes.
How Much Does Van Transport Cost?
Van transport is priced like car transport but adjusted for size and weight: most UK moves fall between £150 and £600 depending on distance and van size. Shared loads are cheaper than dedicated transport, and flexibility on dates helps carriers consolidate loads and lower your price. Non-running vans and tail-lift recovery cost more. Compare quotes for your exact route.
