Vehicle decision
Luton vs Transit decision points for Hertford
A Luton-style box van is considered when cubic space and furniture loading matter more than compact manoeuvrability. Around Hertford, it is most relevant for house moves, office items and bulky retail collections, but tight streets or height-restricted access can still make a smaller van more practical.
For Hertford, a tail lift can help with heavy items only when the item weight, ground surface, clear space and exact vehicle equipment are suitable. It should not be assumed for every move.
