What Bus Would You Recommend For Heavy Furniture Haulage? by lacicrips(op): 11:41am On Aug 11, 2015
I'm looking to get something that can conveniently move coupled furniture items like wardrobes, sofas, etc within Lagos on a daily basis.
I'm going the bus route due to budget constraints, as I see it's a bit cheaper than other types of haulage vehicles. But I'm open to ideas and suggestions.

* I debated if this was the right section to post this or the Autos section. Either ways, moderator kindly move if it doesn't belong here. Thanks.

I'm sure you mean the van and not bus. Busses are used for carrying passengers. Vans are more appropriate for furniture haulage.

Please rephrase the title of your post.

Yes, that's what I meant. Any particular one you'd recommend?

What type is this?

The van in the picture is what's called a Luton van in the UK.

Its perfect for furniture transportation and is very popular with house moving and removal companies.

Get a long chassis, high roof Peugeot Boxer/Fiat Ducato.

Available all over Lagos. Got me clean diesel engine 2 Years back for N800K and petrol engine for N1M.

Thanks for this. I've particularly been looking at that Peugeot boxer for a while now. Why the disparity in price b/w the diesel & petrol?

Thanks @cardoctor.
