What Can You Carry With A Transit Tipper?

Perhaps the most recognisable van model in the world, there are all manner of reasons to acquire the famous Ford Transit, and the Tipper variant may prove an ideal match. Especially designed for the quick and easy transport of materials, goods and items, tipper functionality is just the tip of the iceberg. Within this comprehensive blog post, we’ll look to guide you through some of the more prominent options when utilising the considerable payload – from aggregates to components specific to your job. Trust Vanaways for crucial top tips and unmatched value. .

An Overview

Simply put, Transit Tipper vehicles are an essential for tradespeople around the country – especially when it comes to carrying materials in bulk. The Ford Transit is often described as a construction worker’s best friend, and this is just one of many van types to retain a tipper variant – though there are lots more to explore throughout our site. Tippers are able to quickly and easily empty the contents of their rear onto the ground or into a skip via a functional tipping motion (hence the name), and this isn’t the only variable to expect.

Aggregate Materials

Aggregates are often carried by a tipper van, allowing for easy drop-off. Whether wood chippings, stone remnants or items which have been cut to length, the low suspension and functional tipping motion of a Transit van are an excellent match. Necessary for those times when aggregates need to be transported a distance greater than one end of your site to another, browse our complete Tipper section and discover extra perks.

Rubbish Or Waste

If you operate within the waste management or moving sector, there’s a high likelihood that you’ve had to handle some less-than-ideal materials and items in your time  – with the Transit Tipper a viable solution. Once loaded into an adaptable tipper option, you’re able to easily operate the tipper function via remote. Just as easy if you’re looking to unload waste at a recycling plant, this extra vehicle feature ensures you won’t always have to get your hands dirty.

Job-Specific Objects And Items

Transport job-specific items and objects thanks to the capable payload of a Transit Tipper. On the higher-end of the scale when it comes to payload capabilities, the Ford Transit’s regular updates ensure it leads the pack. Whether a plumber, carpenter or independent tradesman, there’s something for everyone to benefit from when viewing this capable van model.

"First time using Vansaway! I was in a bit of a panic as my van broke down and I was unable to fix it. My van is my livihood, so I looked into leasing and contract. I wish I done it sooner. I spoke to Jonathan as my first point of contact. I couldn't have got any luckier having him as my support. He was absolutely fantastic, he went above and beyond to help me. He was easy to contact and would always reply when I had any concerns or questions. His knowledge on all vehicles was impeccable, which made things easier. He listened to what I wanted and needed and explained everything thoroughly help me making the right choice in plan and kept in touch throughout the entire process! He knew I was in desperate need of a van and he did not disappoint and kept his word and I was able to get my new van delivered as soon as possible. Enjoying the drive. Its great about the perks involved in having a contract hire as well! Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend, vans are just not how they use to be, so its great to have a brand new van along with the support of any engine faults things like that. A huge stress off my shoulders being sole trader."

"First time leasing with Vanaways, but have leased before. Initial contact was with Justin, who found the van I need very quickly at a competitive price. No hard sell, and seamless. Yasmine completed the admin and arranged delivery. Great service from both. Follow up calls to see if I was satisfied with van. Professional and efficient, would highly recommend."

"I recently bought a new car from this company and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Tyler and Steve C were both brilliant to deal with – friendly, professional and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. They took the time to answer all my questions and made everything straightforward and stress-free. The customer service was excellent and I never felt pressured at any point. Both Tyler and Steve C really went above and beyond to make sure everything was sorted and that I was happy with the car. I couldn’t recommend them enough and would definitely buy from them again in the future. Thanks again for such a great experience!"
