How to read this: each orange block is one standard UK/Euro pallet (about 1.2m × 1.0m), so you can see the load space grow from van to van. Sizes follow the standard UK courier-network vehicle capacities — the same figures used across the same-day network HAF works to.

Figures are a typical guide — exact load space and payload vary by vehicle. Not sure which to pick? Choose Not Sure on the quote form and HAF will match the right van. Anything larger than a Luton (7.5t, HGV, artic) is classed as haulage and handled through Business Solutions.
