Hi guys,

I need your advice. It's not directly an expat topic, but maybe someone can give me a good hint anyway. I have started my own business as a tradesman here in England and I´ve finally bought a van. Now I have to equip it so that I can store everything for my work and everything is in order. Do any of you also drive a van in your job and can recommend me good shelves? They should preferably have different sizes and compartments so that I can accommodate both small items, such as tools or screws, but also transport larger items.

Thanks a lot for your recommendations
Tobi

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

In descending order of costs:

Bodybuilders will build you one - expensive but ask around, who knows someone may have some odd parts they were going to throw out.

Breakers yard - look for an older version of your van in the breakers yard and buy the shelves from it.

Build your own - that's what my son did when he got his last van.

Wood today is very expensive.

Hello Cynic,

Thank you again for your advice. I ended up deciding for a van racking system from Sortimo after a few recommendations and a tone of research. Again thank you for your suggestions, but I was looking for a more professional solution
