Choose a dropside van up to 3.5 tonnes for load length and mass and for the people carried in the cab. A light body can improve payload but still needs adequate strength.

How should Dropside vans up to 3.5 t listings be compared?
This version has an open dropside platform on a light chassis. It offers access from several sides, but gives less weather protection than a van and may have less payload than the 3.5-tonne label suggests.
What actually changes the choice?
Compare platform length and width, side height and removal, floor rating and lashing points. A crew cab adds seats but shortens the body and increases unladen mass. A tail lift or small crane further changes payload and axle loads.
Confirm actual payload by weighing the complete vehicle with body, driver and equipment. Check wheelbase, rear overhang, loading height and rear-axle limit. A long load can overload one axle even when total gross weight remains within the limit.
How should a used vehicle be checked?
Inspect floor, subframe, dropsides, hinges, locks and lashing points. Check corrosion and cracks around rear overhang, springs or air bags, tyres and overload signs. Road-test the chassis and operate any tail lift or crane in a separate controlled cycle.
What information should the seller provide?
Request weighing evidence, payload, axle loads, body dimensions and side height. Confirm body maker, floor and lashing ratings, seating, tail-lift or crane records, frame repair history and every additional side, stanchion or cover included.
