Low Loader Luton Van
Luton Van Hire – Renault Master Low Loader Luton
Low Loader Luton vans, as the name suggests, are very large box vans with an exceptionally low load floor which dispenses with the need for a tail lift or a ramp and are well suited for larger, heavier jobs.
Most of the vehicles available for Luton van hire here at Westwood are in the more typical Luton box van configuration, which are generally the very largest vehicle which can be driven on a standard UK license without the driver having had to go through futher training. They are large, exceptionally spacious and (from us at least) are always equipped with a 500kg tail-lift to take the strain out of loading and unloading.
For a variety of reasons however, renting a Low Loader Luton box van might be a better choice. Low loader vans, naturally aren’t as tall as a regular Luton. They have more or less the same space in the back, but the lower floor allows for a lower roofline, so if your destination, or planned route has height restrictions, a low loader luton may well be a better option for you. For example, we’ve all seen what happens when you take a regular Luton or lorry etc under a bridge that’s too low! (Please pay attention to height restriction signposts and the stickers placed within the cab, you seriously don’t want the repair bill if you get THAT wrong!
Why Choose A Low Loader Luton?
The lower roofline has a number of other advantages too. Having a lower profile means less wind resistance, with the inevitable improvement in fuel efficiency. Similarly, there’s less buffeting from crosswinds and a lower centre of gravity for additional stability.
Additionally, loading and unloading, depending on the nature of your cargo could well be faster as you’re not constantly having to raise and lower the tail-lift. For this reason, they’re very popular with removal companies. There’s a simple step, making getting in and out of the load bay a breeze.
Lastly, the absence of a tail-lift, a particularly heavy piece of machinery, means the overall weight of a low loader box van is lower, which means you can carry heavier cargo without exceeding the 3.5 tonne weight limit.
