Light Duty Cargo Vans For Sale

About Cargo Vans 

A staple across various industries, from catering and delivery businesses to HVAC and even construction, the cargo van is proven to be among the most dependable and efficient vehicles for transporting goods and equipment. It provides the maneuverability of an average SUV but has significantly higher hauling power. It is so popular throughout the U.S. that in recent years some companies have faced cargo van shortages and had to lease more or purchase even the oldest models.

Safe, Customizable & Spacious

If the safety of every delivery is your top priority, a cargo van is a go-to option as its enclosed design protects its load from adverse weather conditions, theft, and other unpleasant surprises.

It also offers adaptability that many smaller cars or larger vans lack. You can customize the insides of the cargo according to your business or recreational needs. For example, you can: 

• Customize the cargo space with commercial van upfitting products such as shelving, hangers, drawers, cabinets, and wall liners for better organization
• Use the vehicle as a camper van for travel
• Attach extra seats behind the driver to transport people
• Transform the storage space behind the driver’s seat into a freezer to move temperature-sensitive products

Models like the Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 have a sliding side door in addition to the rear door, which makes loading and unloading cargo fast and easy. High-roof cargo vans often offer enough space to fit everything from large boxes to queen-sized beds and sofas with several cabinets. For example, Ram ProMaster’s standard for high-roof vans varies from 51.8 to 77.1 inches. 

Efficient, Too 

Some manufacturers have reduced internal engine friction and invested in better belt drive systems to increase the longevity of their vehicles. Other improvements include increasing towing capacity to 10,000 pounds (4,536 kilograms). Changes such as these have persuaded Amazon, FedEx, UPS, and other delivery companies to update their fleets with more agile vehicles that thrive in busy urban environments.

However, the payload capacity for most common cargo vans still varies between 4,000 and 5,000 lbs (1,814 and 2,268 kg), which is perfect for small and medium-sized businesses and individual drivers. For smaller payloads up to around 1,500 lbs (680 kg), compact cargo vans are sometimes preferable.

Yet the most popular bonus of any cargo van is its fuel efficiency compared to pickups and other trucks. Traditionally diesel cargos perform better than gasoline versions. Among those top models are the Ford Transit Connect, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City, with 25.5, 25 and 24 mpg, accordingly.
