I have only been on my own for a few months and have a small van so I cant get everything on board.
But could you guys / gals give a quick list of the most important things you keep on the van.
(not the general things like tools, drills, sockets, switches, cable, etc)

many thanks.

Roof rack,make sure it's boarded,alloys,decent sound system,go faster stripes,blue light on top to get you to jobs on time,and a tow bar for the extra kit you may need:D:D:D
 
Ok in no order and not including any tools or parts.

1. pens and pencils ( lots of )
2. kettle
3. toastie machine ( breville/foreman )
4. t bags / coffee
5. mug
6. instant milk
7. tommy K ( heinz )
8. toilet roll
9. lighters ( lots of )
10. invoice book
 
not quiet the post I was expecting but it does make sense to have a tow bar on a berlingo :)
And I think I might but some go faster stripes on it, a blue light would not go a miss either.
 
Sorry I did not mean to don't include tools and parts just to the general basics (screw drivers pliers hammer, grips etc) . It would be good to get a list of the things for the jobs you have turned up to and thought I wish I'd brought this or that.
cable rods, gun nail, plumbing equipment.
 
I have a big one, van that is so I carry loads too much but i always wish I could carry more. Here's my top 10:

1. Spare 10 way CU - all the cb's you need plus the full board for surprises.
2. 50 mtrs of 2.5, 1.5 and 3 core.
3. Plugs and fuses - amazing how many jobs this fixes.
4. Bosch hole cutters.
5. Plenty of sheathing dotted all over the van and pockets.
6. Insulated cup for the tea
7. Pad and pencil for pocket.
8. Good day a page diary.
9. Cable rods - best invention ever.
10. Helecon connectors - like the wago ones but cheaper - 2nd best invention ever.

Can't think of any more right now.
 
Must admit, i dont carry many materials as i have my local wholesaler wrapped round my little finger and will deliver pretty much anything, anywhere at any time :D
