If it is a low loader luton van you are looking to hire, you have come to the right place.

Our fleet includes the Renault Master Low Loader Luton and Ford Transit* Low Loader, giving you a more time efficient alternative to the Luton with a tail-lift.

As the Low Loader is that much lower to the ground, it is quick and easy to load and step up into, cutting out the time you have to wait for the tail-lift to move up and down.

Being lower, and with a six-speed gear box, this Luton body van is a smoother drive, more aerodynamic and better for longer journeys.

It is worth bearing in mind that, as the body of the vehicle is lower, the wheel arches do protrude a little into the loading section.

* The NEW Ford Transit Low loader is slightly taller with 2.4m loading height, BUT it only comes as a TWO SEATER – see picture in gallery.

TO LOCK THE REAR DOORS, YOU CAN EITHER USE THE BUILT IN LOCK* OR PROVIDE YOUR OWN PADLOCK FOR EXTRA SECURITY.

*Some models do come with shutter doors that require a padlock only

Access to the tipper can be gained via the side or rear loading gates and these vehicles have an impressive payload of up to one tonne.
