A panel van has a fully enclosed cargo area with solid side panels in place of rear windows, usually separated from the driving compartment by a bulkhead. That’s what sets it apart from a pick-up, a dropside, a Luton, or a flatbed.
The Ford Transit, Vauxhall Vivaro, VW Transporter, Mercedes Sprinter, and Renault Trafic are all available as panel vans. If yours has an enclosed metal-sided load space behind the cab, it’s likely to be a panel van.
This matters when you sell because the right body type helps us assess your van accurately. We accept panel vans of all sizes, from a compact Vivaro used for courier runs to a long-wheelbase Transit used for trade deliveries, and our online form captures the body type at the point of quote so the valuation can be based on the right details from the start.
Panel vans often come to us for one of four reasons. You’re upgrading to a newer plate. The van has a fault that would cost more to fix than it’s worth. It’s been off the road long enough that selling makes more sense than repairing. Or the business that needed it has changed, and the van is just taking up space.
You don’t need to fix it first. We buy panel vans in all four condition categories:
Select the category that matches yours when you fill in the online form. The quote reflects the real condition, not a hoped-for one.
Once you accept a quote, we arrange a UK-wide collection. There’s no cost to you for the collection; we come to you, whether that’s a home address, a business premises, or a storage yard. We handle all the paperwork and documentation on the day. Have the keys and V5C logbook ready; we help with the paperwork.
Payment is made at the point of collection, not after the van has been transported. You choose cash or a direct bank transfer. The offer we make is the money you get: no hidden fees or admin charges.
You can request a valuation online, or call us for a valuation based on your description. The valuation is based on the details you provide, so accurate information helps avoid delays at collection. If your description is accurate, the collection runs smoothly.
Panel van values depend on age, mileage, body type, condition, make and model, and current demand in the commercial vehicle market. A 2019 Ford Transit Custom in good condition sits in a different bracket to a 2013 Vivaro with 180,000 miles and bodywork damage. We price both honestly.
We don’t publish fixed price lists because every van is different. Our valuation is based on the specific details you enter in the quote form: registration, mileage, body type, condition category, and reflects the real market for that vehicle at the time of quote. Enter your details and you’ll have a figure in front of you without committing to sell.
A panel van sitting unused still has insurance, tax, and storage costs attached to it. A non-runner depreciates faster than a runner because it can’t be tested, can’t be driven on, and tends to deteriorate mechanically the longer it sits. An MOT failure loses value with each month it stays unrepaired, as the failure category may worsen.
If you’ve already decided the van isn’t coming back into use, getting a quote costs nothing and takes under a minute. There’s no obligation to accept, and the quote is free.

No. We collect non-runners. If the van won’t start or can’t be driven, let us know in the condition section of the quote form. We’ll factor that into the valuation and arrange collection that accounts for it. You don’t need to arrange transport or get it to us.
You’ll need the V5 logbook (the vehicle registration document). If you have the service history or recent MOT certificates, bring those too; they can support the valuation. We handle all the DVLA documentation and transfer paperwork on the day. You don’t need to file anything separately.
Payment is made on the day of collection, at the point of handover. You choose cash or bank transfer. You don’t wait for the van to reach a depot before payment is released.
Yes. We buy multiple units from fleet managers and businesses. If you’re disposing of two or more panel vans at the same time, request a fleet quote rather than running each through the individual form; we can provide a consolidated offer covering all vehicles in one collection.
No. We buy panel vans in all four condition categories, including non-runners and MOT failures. The condition affects the valuation, not the decision to purchase. As long as you describe the condition accurately, the quote will reflect the van’s real-world value.
If there’s an outstanding finance agreement on the van, the settlement figure usually needs to be cleared before the sale can complete. We’d recommend checking the outstanding balance with your finance provider before requesting a quote, so you know whether the offer covers it.
