asIn the competitive UK van market, finding the right platform to showcase your inventory can make or break your business. That's why countless van dealer professionals across Britain are making the switch to OnlyVans UK — the first marketplace designed specifically with dealers in mind. Unlike traditional automotive platforms that burden sellers with expensive listing fees and restrictive limits, OnlyVans offers unlimited free listings, transparent pricing, and tools that actually work for the trade.
Whether you're managing a handful of commercial vehicles or hundreds of vans ranging from £15,000 Ford Transits to £45,000 Mercedes Sprinters, OnlyVans eliminates the guesswork and hidden costs that plague other platforms. Van dealers can finally focus on what they do best — selling quality vehicles — rather than wrestling with complicated systems or worrying about mounting advertising expenses.
💡 What You'll Discover: From unlimited free listings and bulk upload tools to branded dealer microsites for just £19/month, we'll explore exactly why OnlyVans has become the go-to platform for UK van dealers who want results without the premium price tag.
Ready to discover how OnlyVans is revolutionising the way dealers connect with serious van buyers? Let's dive into the features and benefits that are transforming businesses across the UK.
Why UK Van Dealers Are Choosing OnlyVans
The UK van market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with commercial vehicle sales reaching over 350,000 units annually. However, traditional platforms charge hefty listing fees that eat into dealer profits, sometimes costing £50-£100 per van listing. This is where OnlyVans revolutionises the game for every van dealer across Britain.
Smart van dealers are discovering that OnlyVans offers something competitors don't: unlimited free listings, transparent pricing, and tools designed specifically for the commercial vehicle trade. Whether you're selling Ford Transits at £25,000 or premium Mercedes Sprinters at £45,000, the platform adapts to your business needs without punishing success with escalating costs.
💡 Dealer Insight: Independent van dealers report saving £200-£500 monthly on listing fees alone when switching to OnlyVans, money that goes straight back into stock investment and business growth.
The True Cost of Van Listing Platforms
Most van dealers don't realise how much traditional platforms actually cost their business. A typical van dealer with 50 vehicles in stock faces monthly listing fees of £250-£400 on mainstream automotive sites. These platforms treat commercial vehicles as an afterthought, applying car-focused rules to an entirely different market.
OnlyVans eliminates this financial burden entirely. Every van dealer gets unlimited free listings, whether they're showcasing a single Volkswagen Crafter or managing inventory of 200+ commercial vehicles. The savings compound quickly – dealers typically reinvest this money into better stock, competitive pricing, or business expansion.

Platform-Specific Features That Matter
Unlike generic automotive platforms, OnlyVans understands commercial vehicle buyers. Search filters include payload capacity (typically 800kg-2,000kg), fuel economy (crucial for fleet operators targeting 35+ MPG), and dimensions that matter for loading bay access. This targeted approach means serious van buyers find your stock faster, generating higher-quality enquiries for every dealer.
Real Buyers, Real Results
Every enquiry on OnlyVans goes directly to the van dealer — no commission fees or middleman taking a cut. When a buyer contacts you about a Ford Transit Custom priced at £28,000 or a Mercedes Sprinter at £35,000, you get their details immediately via phone, email, or through your dealer microsite.
Unlike other platforms that charge 3-5% commission on sales, OnlyVans connects you with serious buyers across the UK without any hidden costs. This means more profit in your pocket when you sell that high-mileage Iveco Daily or low-mileage Volkswagen Crafter.
💡 Dealer Insight: Van dealers report 40% more qualified enquiries through OnlyVans compared to traditional classified sites, with buyers specifically searching for commercial vehicles rather than browsing casually.
Dashboard Made for Van Dealers
Managing your van inventory shouldn't require a computer science degree. OnlyVans provides a clean, intuitive dashboard where van dealers can track everything from listing views to boost performance in real-time.
Update prices instantly when market conditions change — perhaps dropping that 2019 Transit from £32,000 to £29,500 to move it faster. Edit images, modify descriptions, or pause listings when vans are sold, all from your desktop or mobile device.
