Emerging Trend: Transferring Old Van Interiors To New Vans

Work Van Interior

Fleet Managers, CFO’s and Department Managers responsible for fleet costs should know that most work van interiors can be transferred from their old vans to their new replacement vans! This will save lots of money and should be considered a viable Green Initiative for entities serious about reducing the carbon footprint. And it would seem that those involved with selling new product should be aware of this trend, as to ignore it may look as though they are either not aware of this option or just going along with manufacturers incentives to sell more new product!

Fleet Refitters is a company leading the industry in these conversions, they will become the Project Managers for the van interior trade-outs taking over the entire process, delivering the customer their new vans completely outfitted and ready to work. Fleet Refitters will travel anywhere to accomplish these conversions. They will quote the whole process in advance and plan the work for minimum disruption in the department work process as well as expedite the turnaround of the new vans.

Generally fleets will trade to the same make and model vans, but even if the new vans are a different make, the interiors are probably transferrable. If new parts are needed, Fleet Refitters will bring them with them and use them during the swap-out process. If repairs and touch up are needed, they will make sure that it is done.

The bottom line is that fleets can be Green and save big dollars! Fleet Refitters states that savings of $1415 per van is average. If a fleet is buying 50 new vans then that is a savings of over$70,000! That’s not chump change these days, and does anyone want to be the one that ignores those potential savings?
