short wheelbase van hire options are ideal for various purposes such as:
Small Moves
If you’re moving house or need to transport items of furniture or appliances to a new office location, you can hire a short wheelbase van. They offer plenty of space and are easier to manoeuvre than larger vehicles.
Transporting Tools and Materials
Tradespeople such as plumbers, electricians and carpenters often use SWB vans to transport tools and materials to jobs, especially in areas where space and parking are limited. Small businesses such as florists and caterers may also hire a SWB van to efficiently move goods locally.
Events
Businesses or individuals organising events will often hire self-driving SWB vans to transport equipment and supplies to and from the venue. This ensures efficient setup and enhances overall event productivity.
