Industries That Use Light-Duty Vans

Light-duty vans are used in a variety of industries due to their versatility and reliability.  Delivery companies often opt for light-duty vans due to their fuel efficiency and ability to transport large amounts of cargo while still maintaining easy navigation through urban city streets. 
‍

Companies that transport passengers such as shuttles and tour buses often build their fleets using light and medium-duty vans because they have spacious interiors and desirable fuel efficiency. You can also often find vans used by trades such as construction, plumbers and electricians because they easily transport tools and supplies to job sites.

Key Maintenance Requirements for Light-Duty Vans

Proper maintenance is key to ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your light-duty van. Some key maintenance tasks to keep in mind include:
‍

• Regular Oil Changes: It is important to change the oil in your van regularly to keep the engine running smoothly and prevent the build-up of contaminants.
• Fuel System Maintenance: The fuel system of a van should be kept clean and free of debris to ensure proper functioning. This may involve replacing fuel filters and cleaning the fuel tank.
• Regular Tire Service: Proper tire maintenance, including regular tire rotations and ensuring proper tire pressure, is important for the overall health of your van.
• Regular Brake Maintenance: Ensuring that your brakes are in good working order is crucial for the safety of your vehicle and those around you. This may involve replacing brake pads or rotors as needed.
