Bricklayers and masonry specialists rely on dependable vehicles that can carry heavy tools, materials and equipment from site to site. Whether you’re working on residential builds, commercial projects, or private contracts, your van is as vital as your trowel — it’s the workhorse that keeps your day moving.
At Willow Leasing, we supply vans and pickups designed for the building trade. With powerful engines, large load capacities and flexible lease terms, we make it simple to drive a vehicle that meets your needs without tying up your cash flow. From compact vans for small teams to rugged pickups for rough terrain, we’ve got your trade covered.
Bricklayers need vans that are powerful, practical and strong enough to transport blocks, tools, and mixing equipment daily. Here are Willow Leasing’s top choices for tradesmen who demand space, payload and performance.
A true cornerstone of the UK’s trade industry, the Ford Transit Custom offers payloads up to 1,400 kg and load volumes of 6.8 m³. It’s ideal for carrying cement bags, bricks, scaffolding and other heavy materials. The Transit Custom’s wide rear doors and low loading height make site work simple, while the latest models add advanced driver-assistance tech for safer travel between sites.
Ford Transit Dropside / Tipper
Need to transport and unload heavy materials? The Ford Transit Dropside and Tipper models are designed for exactly that. With payloads up to 1,200 kg and a convenient tipping bed, it’s ideal for moving aggregates, sand, or waste between sites.
For teams who need extra space and refinement, the VW Crafter offers up to 18.4 m³ of load capacity and excellent driving comfort. Its wide load doors, durable interior lining and multiple tie-down points make it a reliable choice for transporting bricks, scaffolding or large tools.
Buying a new car or van outright ties up thousands of pounds that could be better invested elsewhere. With Willow Leasing, you pay a predictable fixed monthly cost and a small initial rental — freeing up working capital for tools, marketing, stock or staff.
For businesses: Protect liquidity and keep borrowing power available for growth.
For individuals: Enjoy a new vehicle without the strain of a large upfront payment.
Leasing keeps you in a new, warranty-protected vehicle every few years — meaning:
Better fuel economy and lower emissions.
The latest safety technology (ADAS, lane assist, collision avoidance).
Access to the newest electric and hybrid vehicles without long-term commitment.
For businesses, a modern fleet projects reliability and professionalism; for personal drivers, it means safety and comfort at all times.
Leasing is one of the most tax-efficient ways for a UK business to operate vehicles.
Business Contract Hire (BCH): Up to 100 % of the lease rentals can often be offset against corporation tax if the vehicle is used exclusively for business.
VAT recovery: Reclaim up to 50 % of VAT on car leases and 100 % of VAT on van leases (subject to business use).
No asset on your balance sheet: Leasing keeps your business agile and debt-light — a key advantage when tendering or seeking finance.
Every Willow lease can be configured to your needs:
Choose contract lengths from 24 – 60 months.
Select mileage allowances that fit your actual usage.
Add maintenance, breakdown cover, or GAP insurance.
Combine multiple vehicles under one fleet arrangement.
This flexibility makes Willow Leasing equally suited to sole traders, SMEs and corporate fleets.
Most leasing companies push deals from a limited number of funders or dealers. Willow Leasing compares the entire UK market, including:
National dealers
Specialist funders
Manufacturer-backed finance
Tactical offers
Fleet suppliers
Stock-only discounts
Limited-run promotions
Customers choose Willow because they want a real human managing their lease, not a faceless call centre or automated system.

All our lease deals are delivered free of charge to all Mainland UK addresses. Unless otherwise advised your new vehicle will be driven to your home address by a professional driver on a date and time convenient to yourself.
All our lease deals include road tax for the full duration of your lease. The lease company tax it directly with the DVLA, giving you one less thing to worry about.
At the end of the lease agreement you simply hand the car back to the finance company. They will contact you directly to arrange collecting it from your home address, free of charge. You can either lease another car or look elsewhere. As long as the vehicle is in good condition you won't have anything extra to pay. You can view the fair wear and tear guide here.
The minimum term we offer on our car leasing and van leasing offers are 18 months and the maximum is five years.
The initial rental is a payment you make at the start of your lease agreement. Your initial rental is calculated in multiples of your regular monthly payment and can be based on 1, 3, 6, 9 or 12. As it pays a proportion of your total lease cost it means the more you pay upfront, the lower your monthly payment will be.
