Description
Size

A 3.5t dropside van has a large flat load deck at the back, with folding sides (dropsides) that can be locked into place for transport and then lowered to make it easier to load and unload heavy objects. With a tipper, the load area will tip up allowing the load to slide off.

Size

The lack of a body helps to provide a generous payload, usually from 1,200kg-1,500kg, compared to perhaps 1,000kg-1,200kg for a large panel van. However, payloads vary widely between models. Check with us first if this is important to you.

Suitability

Dropside rental vans are ideal for building materials or garden projects, as they are more suitable for dirty work than panel vans, and are easier to load and unload. They're also good for items that need to be lifted by crane on to the load bed. However, there's no protection from the elements or from thieves, so dropsides are not very well suited for household goods or anything else that's valuable and portable.
