Value Luton Van Hire with Tail Lift, 3.5 tonne

VALUE RANGE – 3.5t GVW Luton Box Van & Tail Lift – 12.5 foot body

The Value Range of 3.5 tonne hire vans from Maun Motors is predominantly aimed at private & non-business rental customers who need to hire a vehicle for a short period of time – from 4 hours to a few days – with insurance included. We sought to provide a range of modern vehicles with impressive features – in a number of body styles, including: Luton with Tail Lift, Dropwell Luton, Curtainside and Dropside – which would be a joy to hire and drive. Often this market is catered for with older vehicles which have been well used, making them suitable for short-term cheap van hire, but we thought we could offer customers something different. Something better.

Maun Motors’ Value Range of vans is built on brand-new, lightweight LDV V80 (formerly Maxus) chassis-cabs, which offer a superb level of driver comfort with features including: Air Conditioning, Electric Windows, Electric Mirrors, Cruise Control, Bluetooth Connectivity, 2.5 litre Turbo-charged Engine, Disc Brakes All-round with ABS & ESP. The V80 is a front-wheel drive vehicle, so it benefits from a low loading height and improved payload over similar, rear-wheel drive models. On these chassis we fit top-quality bodies by our primary body builder, JC Payne. With hard-wearing components such as heavy-duty resin-bonded load deck, and handy features like V-groove side raves with pull-up lashing hooks, so you can be assured that although you’re paying a great value price to hire our Value Range, you’re hiring a quality vehicle which is on top of the job!

This 12 foot 6 inch (3.855 metre) luton box van has amongst the largest payload of all our 3,500 Kg GVW lutons – a whopping 1020kg! The bodies of these vehicles feature internal load lashing rails, a 500kg SWL tail lift with alumimium load bed, LED interior lamps and a large, useable, over-cab luton storage pod.

Maun Motors Self Drive operate a comprehensive range of box vans, luton boxes and pantechnicon-style dropwell lutons, to serve many purposes. The large cargo storage capacity in the box style body is ideal for carrying bulky items, which aren’t heavy enough to justify the use of a 7.5t box van.  Lutons such as this with 3,500 Kg GVW offer flexibility because – unlike HGV lutons – they do not require any specialist driving licence and can be driven by anyone with a standard category B (“car”) driving licence.

A tail-lift can aid with the loading/unloading of goods, especially where bulky or heavy objects of up to 500 Kg are involved. Our maintenance procedures ensure that tail lifts on our hire vans receive regular servicing and LOLER safety testing so you can remain compliant and hire with confidence from Maun Motors.

Value Range – 3.5t Dropside Van Hire – 13.5 foot / 4.12m

*** IMPORTANT INSURANCE & DRIVING LICENCE INFORMATION ***

*** ALL PRIVATE HIRERS PLEASE READ ***

PRIVATE HIRERS (e.g. for personal use, not for company use) – Private Hire Rates shown below (“Private 24hr“ and “Private 4hr“, where applicable) INCLUDE VAT and INSURANCE COVER!  Please call us for further details.

INSURANCE EXCLUSIONS:  Please note that when hiring vehicles on our own insurance we, regrettably, cannot cover drivers of 70 years of age and above, or those under 25 years of age (more info in our FAQs). All drivers must have held a full licence for at least 2 years. Towing with the vehicle is NOT permitted; even if the vehicle you hire has a towbar fitted. If you need to tow with your hire vehicle, you must arrange additional insurance cover prior to commencement of the hire agreement.

The above are conditions of our insurance and are beyond our control.

DRIVING LICENCE VALIDITY: Since DVLA abolished the paper counterpart driving licence, it has affected how hire companies are able to validate driving licences of their customers. Hirers must now enter their details into a website in order to generate a validation code to share with us, otherwise we are unable to hire to them.

If you are hiring a vehicle from us which will be covered by our insurance it is essential that you read the information at the following link:  https://hire.maunmotors.co.uk/hiring-vehicle-private-insurance/
