Frequently asked questions

The key to getting a commercial van or ute fitout right is choosing a build that fits your vehicle, your trade and your budget. Here are answers to the questions businesses ask most before they enquire, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
  • How much does a commercial van or ute fitout cost?

    The cost of a commercial van or ute fitout depends on your setup. Key factors include:

    • Vehicle platform (van vs ute, size)
    • Custom or Standard configuration
    • Storage or racking system — Trade System or Syncro
    • Drawer configuration and depth
    • Add-ons — tow bars, beacons, ramps, tinting
    • Single vehicle vs multi-vehicle fleet pricing

    Ute service body from $15,970 excl gst

    Trades van fitout package (standard) from $4,961.40 excl gst

    Because every commercial fitout is tailored to your vehicle and trade, pricing is best confirmed with an accurate quote rather than a fixed figure. Build your fitout in our Fitout Configurator or request a quote

  • What's included in a commercial van fitout?

    A commercial van fitout quote typically covers:

    • Racking or storage system — Trade System or Syncro
    • Flooring and wall lining
    • Electrical work
    • Optional extras — tow bars, beacons, ramps, tinting
    • Weight calculation

    This means you can see exactly what’s driving the cost, and add or remove items to suit your budget. Read more on our Commercial Vehicle Fitouts hub, or build your own quote in the configurator.

  • How long does a commercial fitout take?

    How long does a commercial fitout take?

    As a general guide, fitouts move through three stages:

    • Discovery, design & proposal: 1–4 weeks
    • Pre-work: 3–6 weeks (depending on parts and vehicle availability)
    • Production: 3–45 working days

    Turnaround depends entirely on the scope of your project. Key factors include:

    • The complexity of the build
    • How many vehicles are involved
    • How quickly the design and drawing are signed off

    We confirm a realistic timeline once we understand your requirements. If you’re working to a tight deadline or a fixed programme date, talk to us — we’ll let you know what we can accommodate.

  • Can you handle a multi-vehicle fleet rollout?

    Yes, this is a core strength. Fleet rollouts typically involve a single, standardised specification applied across every vehicle. We have a capacity for up to 65 vehicles a week at our Wiri facility, so we can achieve consistency and scale.

    See how we support fleet managers on our Commercial Fleets page.

  • Which van or ute platform should I use?

    There’s no single best platform. The right choice comes down to:

    • Payload and GVM for the job
    • Cabin and load-area layout
    • Budget and dealer relationship
    • What the vehicle needs to carry day to day

    We fit out all the major platforms, including the Ford Transit, Mercedes Sprinter, Toyota HiAce, Ford Ranger and Toyota Hilux. See model-specific guidance on our Commercial Vans and Commercial Utes pages, or browse by model on our Your Vehicle hub. Already got a vehicle in mind? Our team’s happy to talk through whether it’s the right fit for the job, or advise if you’re still weighing up options.

  • Can you fit out an electric van?

    Yes. We fit out electric vans, including the Mercedes eSprinter, KIA PV5 and Ford Transit Cargo EV  EV fitouts need a different approach:

    • Battery placement affects the interior layout
    • Every kilogram of racking or equipment matters more against a reduced payload
    • Power management for onboard equipment needs to be planned in from the start
