How we value a specialist body van

With specialist vans, the body matters as much as the chassis. Here is what we check.

Our figure, before you list it

Quicker than writing an advert. Free, and no strings.

Registration Mileage

Good. Now the details a buyer would ask, so we can price the body and base.

Make Model

Year Asking price (if you had one)

Body Condition

Who are you? Postcode where kept

Phone number Email (if you want)

What would the advert say? (if you want)

Chassis

The chassis cab matters: tell us the make, engine, gearbox and mileage.

Tipper

Tell us if the tipper works, the condition of the body and any cage or toolbox.

Luton

Tail lifts need regular LOLER inspections. Send the latest certificate if you have it.

Fridge

Tell us the fridge unit, whether it runs on standby, and the insulation condition.

Minibus

Tell us the number of seats, any wheelchair access and the paperwork.

Paperwork

Body certificates and service records help us value accurately.

This page is general guidance about selling a van. It isn't a price guide: every vehicle is valued individually, free and without obligation.

My LOLER has lapsed. Is that a problem?

No, tell us.

Do you buy vans with racking or shelving in the box?

Yes.

Do you need the service history?

It helps but isn't essential.

Can you collect a van that won't start?

Yes, free.

Will you give me a price over the phone?

We'll give you a firm offer once we have the details and photos.
