Organising the van

[Kyle87]

Well I can't afford a bigger van at the minute so it's a case of doing what I can to survive with this one. Which means major organisation

This is how it used to look after a job

So I dragged the lot out

 

[Kyle87]

And started building racking

 

[Kyle87]

 

[Kyle87]

And here we are.....a bit more organised. We'll see how long it lasts

 

[Leo21]

You don't fancy having a go at my van do you? Mines a tip.

 

[Killy Bing]

Need to get on with racking out the transit.

I'll be doing this again next week

Have you got rid of the smell of fish yet?

 

[gasmanrob]

You could swap those hiltis for a bigger van

 

[Kyle87]

And then turn up to job with no tools.....and say to customer.....sorry can't hang that rad as I have no drill. Will no more nails be ok for you

 

[gasmanrob]

Pfft use some 2x4 to prop it up

 

[Millsy 82]

Give it a week it will look the same again.

I have never met a plumber with a clean van. Might be clean at the start of the week never by the end.

That looks like a pic of the back of Kevs van. They could be twins...

Yep. After the chrismas break, we see loads of beautiful, clean, well organised vans.

By mid january, we are back to jamming in a bath and a cylinder on top of a pile of disorganised tools, scrap and rubbish.

Got complimented on the inside of my van today when I opened side door. New customer for life

 

[armyash]

Haha I always think I must have the most untidy van, good to see it's the same for everyone else.

Been told a few times now, if someones van is always well organised and tidy then they can't be working hard enough.

 

[village idiot]

when I get to a job and the customer asks me if there is anything they can help me with? I get into a panic and usher them back indoors. No, NO. I will be ok.

Can't afford for them to see the state of my van. If I cannot organise or keep my van clean, what chance is there to keep their property clean? But, if they do not see the inside of my van, then I can do my job, and leave property spanking clean

 

[Ermintrude]

Before and after.

After a bbu and combi swap. Oh and a cistern at security office

Stans van is never a mess, ever

 

[Ermintrude]

Mines clean and tidy until I don't empty it at shop in morning after!

 

[Kyle87]

What van do you drive Ermi

 

[Leo21]

Just get a van with no rear windows and a bulkhead. Job done, no one can see in.

 

[Destroyer2813]

Come on Kyle should know that by now nv200 the only van Ermi talks about

 

[Destroyer2813]

Must be a VW owner thing my mates the same with his nothings ever out of place

 

[Ermintrude]

Come on Kyle should know that by now nv200 the only van Ermi talks about

She's a bute. Had a transit and a connect and sprinter. Nv is my favourite. Although I haven't got full confidence it won't tip over doing 65 around a bend. Unlike me old tranny, used to play spice girls 2 become one and then once she was softened up ride the living day lights out of her, used to practice drifting in the wet!

 

[gasmanrob]

I couldn't do it that would drive me insane. Just not a fan of small vans. But still maintain that the connect is the comfiest van I have ever driven

 

[Ermintrude]

Bigger the van the more rubbish u carry

 

[Leo21]

Bigger the van the more rubbish u carry

Correct ,but you can carry more rubbish and still be able to work out of it. Those nv200,s have the look of a van made of tin foil.

 

[Ermintrude]

They are made from pie cases and melted bic pens! But they are so light they will leave a tranny standing and quite efficient on juice.

 

[PlumbersMate]

If nv200 was a 3 seater I'd buy one tomorrow
