Courier Vans, An In-Depth Look at our Fleet
Blog
03rd September 2021
When seeking out a same day courier, you’ll need to know that they have a vehicle suitable for your needs. Here at EcoSpeed, we know that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. The load and size of your consignment will dictate which van is the most appropriate for your delivery – and we have a range of options to cater for all.
To meet the most demanding customer needs, we have a wide range of vehicles ranging from the most efficient of small vans to HGV lorries for heavyweight haulage requirements.
Small & Medium Sized Courier Vans
If you’re looking to transport small packages to your chosen location, then one of our smaller vans will be perfect for you.. The maximum load our smallest van can carry is 400kg, so even with this weight limit you’re still able to have a number of objects taken to your destination.
If our smallest van isn’t for you, then not to worry – our extra long wheel base van could be. With a length of 4m and a width of 1.7m, this is ideal for moving wide and large consignments. If you’re wondering whether this van can hold a good amount of weight, well then you’re in luck because it does! This vehicle can carry a maximum load of 1200kg, so you have plenty of room to contain both light and heavy parcels.
The collection process is quick and efficient, and your driver will take care of your goods from this point onwards. We provide safety to all of our items that need moving, so we ensure that they are fastened correctly inside of the van and will not move during the entirety of the journey. Keeping your consignments in top condition is a priority.
As part of our continuous drive to reduce the impact of our operation on the environment, we are constantly investing in new technology including fuel-efficient vehicles. All of our small vans have had their engine management systems re-mapped to reduce emissions by up to 27%.
If a small van is what you’re after, then give our 24/7 Transport Office a call to discuss your requirements.
Large Courier Vans & Trucks
Trying to transport heavy objects can be a difficult task on it’s own. It’s a struggle lifting heavy items, which is why choosing a courier company capable of transporting large loads is the best solution. If you need large consignments moving then look no further than our large courier vehicles, we have numerous vans and trucks that can assist in your deliveries.
Of our larger vans range, our Luton Van Tail Lift can carry a maximum load of 660kg, and we have a range of trucks capable of carrying anything up to 9000kg. Looking for something on a larger scale? We can also provide Arctics & HGV’s with a variety of different trailer sizes.
If you’re in the middle of moving houses and you need consignments being delivered quickly, then we specialise in the delivery of time-sensitive, fragile, abnormal, heavy, high-value and difficult to handle loads. We are able to collect within the hour, 24 hours a day and 7 seven days a week.
Furthermore, we provide haulage and logistic services throughout the UK and Europe, so if you’re interested in this then we highly advise you to browse our large vehicles. EcoSpeed trucks are normally booked well in advance, to relieve stress at known peaks, but should a haulage company find themselves suddenly undermanned – we can fill the void.
All of our large vehicles are available for last minute immediate hire, just like our same day couriers. This allows us to provide immediate and flexible support to almost any supply chain company. Our extensive network of trucks also allows us to offer nationwide services from our base here in Manchester.
