Tradie Vans For Sale Melbourne

For Melbourne’s tradespeople, a reliable work van is the foundation of the business. At Progressive Vans, we specialise in sourcing, inspecting, and selling quality used tradie vans as part of our commercial vehicle sales operation. We understand what tradies need from a work van — because commercial vehicles are all we do.

What Makes a Good Tradie Van?

The best tradie van is the one that suits your specific trade, load requirements, and working environment. Key factors include payload capacity, cargo dimensions, fit-out compatibility, reliability, and running costs. Our team can help you work through these requirements and find the right van for your trade.

Popular Tradie Van Models

Toyota HiAce — Australia’s most popular tradie van. Legendary reliability, strong resale value, and excellent parts availability.
Ford Transit — modern, feature-rich, with excellent cargo capacity. Popular with tradies who spend long hours in their van.
Mercedes Sprinter — the premium choice. Superior comfort and build quality for tradies who want the best.
LDV Deliver 9 — maximum cargo space at a competitive price. An increasingly popular choice for tradies watching their budget.

Fitted or Unfitted?

We stock both fitted and unfitted vans. A quality fit-out — shelving, racking, drawers, toolboxes — can cost $2,000–5,000+ to install, so buying a van with a suitable existing fit-out can save significant money. If you need a specific fit-out configuration, let us know and we’ll keep an eye out for suitable stock.

Every Van Workshop-Inspected

Every tradie van we sell goes through our specialist commercial vehicle workshop. Comprehensive inspection, service, Roadworthy Certificate, and PPSR check as standard. For diesel vans, we assess DPF condition — visit our van DPF cleaning Melbourne page for more information.

Finance for Tradies

We offer flexible van finance options for tradies, including chattel mortgages for ABN holders (with potential GST and tax benefits), secured vehicle loans, and low doc options for self-employed tradies. Many applications approved within 24–48 hours.
