carrying stump grinder - combi van

[Dean O]

does anyone carry their stump grinder in the back of a combi sized van?

 

I was looking at buying a little van for doing quotes and running around but it needs to be multi purpose to earn its keep

 

I'm wondering what makes + models may be suitable back door needs to be high enough to take the height of the handle bars when going up the ramps, and there may be other practical implications making the idea nonsense?

 

its a hb20 currently towed on a plant trailer.

I guess it depends on the size of the grinder . I high to connect would spring to mind

I'm being lazy really - and although a long shot I'm hoping someone out there does exactly what I'm thinking of so that I don't need to do any research on backdoor sizes and load space lengths etc.

Get an ex mobility as in disabled wheel chair renault kangoo or something of that size as they will have a ramp bulit in and the height. There is a guy on here who has got one like that but cant remember his name.

I think it will be to big for a vauxhall combi or Renault kangoo. I keep meaning to try mine in my combo, but it's a Carlton 13hp one so smaller than yours

There used to be a conversion of Renault traffic's called ridgeback which has a 'kneeling' mechanism so that the loadbed is at ground level.

We have a VW Caddy with a Predator 360 that just fits with ramps

That holds a predator 450 easily.

 

It's a peugeot Expert, Fiat and Citroen do the same shape.
