Delivery, Construction, Maintenance: Which Professional Utility Vehicle for Which Activity

December 9 2025



What Utility Vehicle Do You Need Depending on Your Professional Activity
CarGo provides different types of utility vehicles for professionals. Each model is suited to a specific type of activity to meet the needs of every sector.
Professionals working in delivery generally look for vehicles that are easy to handle while still offering good loading capacity. In recent years, fuel consumption has become a major concern, leading many delivery drivers to choose compact vans that simplify urban trips and allow easy access to all delivery zones. For short distance deliveries, electric vehicles are recommended due to their energy savings and reduced environmental impact. CarGo, a specialist in short and long term commercial vehicle rentals, offers the ideal van for all delivery operations.
For construction workers heading to job sites, utility vehicles must offer strong load capacity to transport bulky materials. A large van or a pickup capable of carrying heavy items or towing a trailer becomes essential. For even greater needs, CarGo also offers tipper trucks for rent.
Professionals in maintenance and repair such as plumbers, electricians and heating technicians require a modular vehicle with storage solutions. Compact vans equipped with integrated shelving and compartments for tools and spare parts allow technicians to reach job sites easily with a mobile workshop on board.

Which Criteria Should You Consider When Choosing Your Utility Rental
Choosing a professional utility vehicle depends on several criteria.
The type of engine is key. CarGo offers three motorisation options. Diesel vehicles are more economical for long trips and frequent travel. Petrol models are better suited for short journeys. Electric vehicles are ideal for urban areas and low emission zones.
Loading capacity is another essential factor. You must evaluate the volume required, the maximum weight supported and the accessibility of the loading area including lateral opening if needed.
Comfort and ergonomics are important considerations. A utility vehicle often serves as a mobile office, so professional drivers need a comfortable working environment. For frequent travel and long distances, comfortable seats help reduce fatigue over long days. For artisans carrying tools and equipment, clever storage solutions ensure more efficient work on site. You may also select vehicles based on the onboard technology including GPS, Bluetooth, smartphone connectivity or fleet management systems.
Safety and driver assistance features are also important. Renting a utility vehicle from CarGo ensures a modern, well maintained vehicle equipped with the latest safety technologies including rear view cameras and reversing sensors for easier manoeuvres, advanced driver assistance systems such as adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency braking, and partition walls that protect the loading area.

CarGo offers flexible rental options for professional utility vehicles, with the possibility to test models before committing to a long term contract. This allows you to choose a vehicle that perfectly suits your needs. If you have occasional requirements due to increased activity or a large project, CarGo also provides short term rental solutions.
