Get Ready for Winter Weather!

Ready or not, winter is on its way, and it’s time to winterize your work van equipment! One good item to buy for use in your work van this winter is a good set of all-weather floor mats. These mats are designed to keep your work van’s floor completely dry. Even if you’re stomping into your work van in snow-covered boots, these special weather-proof mats guarantee that you won’t have to deal with a soggy, soaking floor; the mats simply absorb the moisture and then dry quickly.

You might think that floor mats that constantly absorb moisture and dry would wear out pretty quickly, but that’s not the case if you buy quality floor mats specifically made for winter weather. Such floor mats are guaranteed not to mold, curl, become overly saturated, blister, or crack! In fact, leading brands can actually hold up to a full quart of water or more!

The Importance of Commercial Vehicle Insurance

If you have a van that you use specifically for work, then you may be required to hold specialized commercial vehicle insurance. This type of auto insurance will protect you, your van, and in some cases, even your work van equipment if you get into an accident during working hours or if your vehicle gets damaged at a job site. There are many different types of commercial vehicle insurance that you will need, including bodily injury liability coverage, which protects you in the event that you cause bodily injury to another driver, and property damage liability coverage, which covers you if you cause damage to another person’s property.


 If you carry around a lot of expensive work van equipment, as many professionals do, you should ask your insurance provider about insuring that equipment. That way, you may be able to recoup your losses if your equipment is damaged or destroyed due to an accident or collision.

Be Professional On and Off the Road



Are you required to drive a van or other vehicle for work related purposes? If so, it’s important for you to understand that, when you’re driving a company vehicle, you serve as a representative for your workplace. If you act like a crazy person on the road, people are likely to get a bad impression of your employer, which can lead to a downturn in patronage which, in turn, can lead to less work and less income for you. So, when you drive unsafely, you don’t just run the risk of hurting others on the road and/or of potentially damaging your work vehicle, you run the risk of harming yourself, both in terms of safety and in terms of job security and workload, and of harming your employer’s organization.

One of the best things you can do is to always obey the posted speed limits. Since work vans are large, you may even want to travel at speeds slightly below the speed limit to ensure maximum safety. Not speeding is also important if you have work van equipment on or in the vehicle. Excessive speeds can cause often heavy equipment to go flying off of your vehicle where it can potentially do some serious damage. To further reduce your risk of incidents, make sure all work van equipment is properly secured to or in your van.

For more great tips on how you can drive safely and properly represent your business, talk to the friendly, knowledgeable sales representative at Auto Truck Depot.

Get the Work Van Equipment You Need to Get the Job Done Right

When your vehicle also serves as your office, you can’t afford not to have the right work van equipment. There are a ton of different types of equipment out there, so it’s best, before you shop, to take some time to think about what it is you need to get your job done. Having a plan as to what pieces  of equipment you need will not only help to make shopping easier, but it will also ensure that you don’t end up buying things you don’t need on impulse, enabling you to save money.

A lot of the work van equipment products you will come across will have to do with transporting cargo as safely and as efficiently as possible. There are also products to help maximize storage capacity and products to help you store all of your tools and other pieces of equipment neatly. A good rule of thumb is to seriously consider any product that can help you to do your job more quickly, to do your job better, to do your job more easily, or to be more organized. Any item that can help you to accomplish one or more of these goals is a smart investment.

The Kargo Master Rack is an excellent product available from Auto Truck Depot, one that can come in handy for just about anybody. While this rack is designed to easily get all types of cargo from one place to another, it’s particularly good for storing bulky, oversized pieces of cargo. Since the rack is on the outside of the vehicle, it also allows you to preserve valuable work van space and to protect your van’s interior.

To Protect Your Work Van Equipment

Image 1
Are you looking to go into a career in plumbing or in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)? If so, you are going to need some serious work van equipment to get your job done right. If you work for a company, some or even most of your equipment may be provided for you. If, however, you’re looking to go into business for yourself, you will have to foot the bill. That’s why it’s so good that there are sellers like Auto Truck Depot around, which offer quality items at reasonable prices that even start-up business owners can afford.

While the exact pieces of work van equipment you will need will vary greatly depending upon your job, your goals, and the details of what you’re trying to do, there are some basic items that should be included in just about every HVAC or plumbing van. You’ll want to have durable shelving units, preferably that allow you to adjust the height as needed, to hold all of your tools and equipment. You should also have shelf center support legs to keep your shelves firmly in place and shelf doors for extra security. Equipment and tools can be expensive and you don’t want to take any chances by cutting corners! You should also keep an extra shelf kit on hand, just in case, and bin dividers for easy organization. Van partitions are a good idea as well.

Even if you don’t have a lot to spend upfront, you can just buy one or two items at a time, starting with your most needed pieces first. A great starter piece is the Weatherguard van storage unit, which can easily take care of most of your storage needs.

Is Money an Issue? Consider Adding Work Van Equipment in Stages

Work van equipment is necessary for any professional who uses a work van. Unfortunately, if you want the very best equipment, then you should know that it does not come cheaply. If you do find excessively cheap products, you might think you’re saving money by choosing those instead, but the truth is most of those items are very low quality. Thus, in the long run, you’ll end up having to replace them more often than you would better pieces of equipment, which actually costs you more money. So, instead of selling out and buying cheap products, buy high quality ones—just do it a little at a time, as your budget allows.

You can determine which pieces to add first based on how much you need them. If you’re going to need lots of pieces, sit down and make a list of all of the work van equipment you need to have. Then, think about how much you need each one. From there, just go with the most necessary item that you can afford, working your way through your list a little at a time. Before you know it, you will have everything that you need!

One piece of equipment that we recommend getting as soon as possible is a window bulkhead. It is a van screen that is a little on the expensive side, but that is well worth the money! It’s built from the strongest, most long lasting 16 gauge steel and it’s great at keeping your cargo from moving about as you travel. Loading is simple too thanks to the handy opening. There’s no need to customize this product either; it works with any full size van. Plus, don’t worry about spending money on professional installation. You can do it yourself with mounting brackets.
