Driving Success: The Role of Panel Vans in Civil Engineering Projects

Civil engineering projects are the backbone of infrastructure development, shaping the world we live in. Behind every successful project lies meticulous planning, skilled labour, and a fleet of reliable vehicles. Among these, panel vans stand out as versatile workhorses that play a crucial role in the execution of civil engineering tasks. Let’s explore the significance of panel vans in civil engineering projects and how hiring the right vehicle, from a trusted provider like CVM World Rentals, can streamline operations and contribute to project success.

Panel vans are often referred to as the “Swiss Army Knife” of construction vehicles, and for good reason. Their design allows for a spacious and enclosed cargo area, making them ideal for transporting tools, equipment, and materials to and from construction sites. The versatility of panel vans extends beyond transportation—they serve as mobile workshops, providing a convenient space for on-site tasks and ensuring that essential tools are readily available.

Our Welfare Fleet Explained!

Our Welfare Van Hire Fleet consists of Peugeot Boxer Welfare vans.

Take a look at our:

Peugeot Boxer Welfare Van For Hire

As a Welfare hire vehicle (sometimes known as Mess Van) our Peugeot Welfare Vans are a great platform for employee transport and facilities combined. We offer a range of Hire periods which are suited to those working on short to long term contracts.

Our Hire Welfare Vans are ideals for those who either need to bolster their fleet with additional vehicles without the need for permanent investment or require a Welfare Van purely for the duration of the contract


We’ve equipped our Welfare Vans for hire with Chapter 8 compliant livery. This means our vans are fitted with reflective strips along the side of the vehicle and Chevrons on the rear. It’s an important factor to consider when looking to Hire a Welfare Vehicle as not all have this signwriting fitted. It is however a legal requirement should your workforce be working on the UKs Highways and the vehicle be in a stationary position.

When is Chapter 8 Livery Required:

  • Roadworks
  • Traffic Management
  • Breakdown Repair & Recovery
  • Groundworks
  • Road Sweeping
  • Roadside Tree Work

This isn’t exhaustive and it’s best to check prior to agreeing to a Welfare Vehicle Hire, whether you’ll need to have Chapter 8 Livery.

  • What can you expect from our Hire Welfare Vans:
  • VOSA tested seating for up to 7 people
  • Unisex toilet
  • Hot and cold-water supply
  • Canteen facilities with sink, microwave, and cooking area
  • Boiling water supply
  • Air extraction units
  • Bespoke storage facilities

We’ve also fitted our Welfare Hire Vehicles with Towbars and Rhino Steps. Though minor additions to a Welfare Vehicle they do provide great benefits.

Having a Welfare Van on hire with towing capabilities will assist in transporting equipment to and around site. Equally the Rhino step aides in the on and off boarding of the workforce, a benefit that shouldn’t be understated when looking to avoid slips, trips and falls on a worksite.
