Vehicle decision
Luton vs Transit decision points for Epsom
A Luton-style box van is considered when cubic space and furniture loading matter more than compact manoeuvrability. Around Epsom, it is most relevant for furniture collections, storage moves and larger household loads, but tight streets or height-restricted access can still make a smaller van more practical.
For Epsom, 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.

Volume is not payload
