Planning Your Business And Your Van

By Byron Jonas


When you own a business, the next step, if not taken previously, is to own a company vehicle. A company vehicle can serve many purposes, not only to advertise your business on the road, but to get from Point A to Point B. Business that cater to "house call" type services usually find cars easier than vans. But when it comes to vans, they can be essential for Your Business and You Van.

You may have seen business-specific vans on the road in the past, more than you would see cars. Vans are normally used for carpet maintenance services. They hold the tools needed from vacuums to cleaning solutions to clean carpets of homes and business of all sizes.

The number one use of vans are for installing cable service. Cable vans commonly hold ladders on top of the van, while the back hold excess of cable wires and cable converter boxes. Although, one van will not be enough to cater to the whole neighborhood and requires multiple vans for timely visits to other customers.

Owning a landscaping company, you would just about everything known to man for providing garden maintenance. A landscaping business needs leaf blowers, mowers, weed whackers, fertilizer, and other tools. If a van is not enough, hitch trailers can be considered for hauling extras to garden building supplies and ride-on mowers.

More examples of business vans range from privately owned neighborhood moving companies, junk hauling, and deliveries. Not for profit organizations can also benefit from vans for transporting people around who really need it. Vans can be much cheaper than a standard moving truck-type vehicle.

Chances are, that if you already own a van for personal use, it will save you time and money, It can also of course reduce the stress of transporting bulky equipment in a small car. Once your business gains enough attention and sends more sales your way with advertising, renting vans is another step to expanding you business and your van fleet.
