Hi Guys I ve been doing carpet cleaning for just over a year and I am now looking to get a van just for the carpet cleaning side of the business as I use one of our other two vans which we use for other cleaning.
What size van do you recomend & how do you recommend I rack it out?(ill be carring on using a porti for the moment)

The older Citroen Dispatch was good size, new one even better.

I run a VW Transporter, and it's pretty well full up.
Gonna be looking for a LWB Transporter next time around I think.

I have the Citroen dispatch 2006 and very pleased with it sliding doors either side tooloads of space but not too big.

Depends what equipment you are putting in, the guy that advertises in my local rag runs from the bot of his car!
TM users usually have bigger vans apart from Dave Ingram who knows Dr Who and has regularly borrowed his Tardis to put his TM in.

My suggestion,
Gbigger than what you think you will need , you can never have enough room their is always something else you need to be putting into the van.
Besides I hate it when you have start moving things about in the back of the van , much easier to be able to just get to what you want with out the hassle .

Thanks for your replys guys, we have a MWB transit & a MWB Nissan Interstar & i was looking to see if something smaller would be more pratical and economical, but GWRIGHTSON has a valid point maybe I should stick with something bigger to get all the stuff in.
Im in the process of upgrading my gear to a Airflex turbo, a virodri, a Sebo Vac and a extra air move,r the guys that have mentioned they have a Dispatch how do you find them for space do you manage to get all your gear & move it about ok in them?

i would say depends on what way yo are going to run your airflex if you are going to run it from the van you will need no smaller than a swb trafic etc. i used to run mine fom th van 100ft fin for mot domestics and certainlt speeds things up. but make sure you use 2 etension cables

It's great Richard, I'm loving running my set up from the back of my Combo :) But I really need a bigger van.... :'( The other up side to a bigger van is more advertising space ;)
