The Benefits of Commercial Van Conversions
Loads of businesses are becoming “mobile” and hitting the open road in custom built commercial vans. Business owners are choosing a van instead of static shops or office rentals.
Converting a van or lorry for business use is becoming more and more popular across the UK.
In this blog, we’ve included all of the benefits that you can enjoy when converting a van for commercial use.
Make your business fully mobile
One of the most significant advantages of having a commercial van, is the newfound mobility and flexibility they provide.
Instead of being tethered to a traditional office or shop space, you have the freedom to take your business on the road.
It doesn’t matter where’re you go. It could be meeting clients, attending networking events, or conducting fieldwork or attending a conference. A converted commercial van space can give you a mobile office allows you to work from virtually anywhere. It adapts to the demands of your schedule. Some of our clients include a sleeping area, so they can reach jobs further afield and not need to rush back. Neat, huh?
Save money
Renting office space or leasing commercial property can be really expensive for any business. Converting a van for business use offers a cost-effective alternative for lots of people. It eliminates the need for long-term leases, utility bills, and other overheads associated with maintaining a brick-and-mortar location. It means small business owners can also free up some cash in other areas of their business in order to grow.
Did someone say free marketing?
A commercial van conversion is a powerful marketing tool! Vans are the perfect mobile billboard and can showcase your services and contact details wherever you go.
There’s loads to choose from. Branded signage, decals, or a custom wrap – your vehicle instantly becomes a moving advertisement that attracts attention. We recommend including your company’s logo, brand colours, and really clear contact details. A clean, memorable design can help with you brand’s visibility while you’re on the road.
Super-fast customer service
In today’s “instant-order” culture where people expect same day delivery and 24 hour turnarounds, providing exceptional customer service is essential.
It’s simple… A van converted for commercial use can get you there faster. A fully fitted commercial van can help you deliver a product or service that is faster and sharper than the “other guys up the road”. Get the job done right, first time with state of the art tools, a mobile power supply, nifty storage (and superior tea and coffee making facilities, obviously).
Whether you’re offering mobile repairs, on-site consultations, or product demonstrations, a mobile office lets businesses meet customers needs on a higher level. Sometime being the first person on the job is what helps foster those all-important business relationships and builds customer loyalty from the get-go.
100% custom built
One of the major benefits of a van conversion is its adaptability. All businesses evolve over time and incorporate change as they go. At the Dub Hut, all of our van conversions are custom built to ensure that our commercial customers get everything they need to work seamlessly on the road. We can do pretty much anything, so if you need a kitchen, sleeping area, pop tops or just a carefully thought out storage system we’ve got you covered.
Vans can become anything – mobile workshops, pop-up shops, mobile clinics and even food trucks! The possibilities are endless and thats why we love vans so much.
Make your business a little greener
In addition to its practical benefits, converting a vehicle for business use can reduce carbon emissions and minimise environmental impact. There are a huge number of electric vans on the market right now, and the choice is growing every year.
By consolidating your business operations into a single vehicle, you can minimise the need for additional transportation, utilities, and optimise fuel efficiency.
