Tipper Truck FAQs
Should I lease a dropside van or a tipper van?
The type of business you run may mean that the panel vans or Luton vans aren't appropriate for transporting the load you're carrying. As an example, loose and heavy loads such as building and gardening materials are more suitable for dropside and tipper vans.
A dropside or tipper leasing provides a van with a large and flat loading area surrounded only by sideboards, leaving the entire load space open. These sideboards can be folded down on a drop side so that forklifts, shovels or people can have direct access to the load area. Their design also allows the sides to drop below the depth of the floor, thereby minimising the risk of vehicle damage. Dropside vans are especially useful for builders and anyone else transporting dirty or bulky goods because they offer a generous payload and are extremely practical.
In contrast to dropsides, tipper vans allow the entire load area to be mechanically raised at an angle so that the load is tipped out. Tipper lease deals for 1-way tipper trucks are the best choice if you need the load tipped just from the rear. It is possible to lease a 2-way tipper truck that allows you to tip the load from the back and the side of the truck. For maximum convenience and flexibility, lease a 3-way tipper truck that can tip right, left, or to the rear - so that it can be used for a variety of purposes. If you need to transport loose items such as soil, sand, cement, branches, logs, stone, gravel etc., tipper truck leasing might be the solution. When you arrive at your destination, you can just open the tailgate and empty it all, saving hours of your time.
When leasing a dropside or tipper van, you need to consider that the dropside vans offer greater payload capacity than tippers. Tipper trucks, on the other hand, can be loaded and unloaded in a matter of minutes thanks to their tipping action, which you won't get if you lease a dropside van. Ask yourself what's more important for your business, and you'll know which to choose.
How does dropside tipper leasing work?
Leasing a dropside tipper is usually the most convenient way to obtain a commercial truck. Dropside and tipper trucks are very expensive to buy brand-new, while second-hand vans may pose a number of risks that you would not want to take if you expect your business to run smoothly.
A dropside tipper van leasing through a business contract hire or finance lease provides you with a brand new dropside tipper truck that won't let you or your customers down. For a relatively small initial rental followed by equal monthly rentals, you can deliver your services in a reputable vehicle. There are two to five-year dropside tipper lease agreements available, as well as an optional vehicle maintenance package that includes tyres, windshields, breaks, maintenance and more.
You can also lease a dropside tipper truck with a tow bar - just let us know you require one when requesting a quote on a selected dropside tipper deal. Remember, we offer van signwriting and vehicle wrapping services as well!
