Types of Finance For Vans:
If you’re thinking about getting a used van on finance, there are several ways to fund your next vehicle. At UK Car Finance, we specialise in Hire Purchase (HP) vans, one of the simplest and most straightforward ways to finance a van. Some lenders may ask for a deposit, but we also have options for van finance with no deposit.
With a hire-purchase agreement, you repay the loan in affordable monthly instalments over an agreed term. Once all payments are complete, you own the van outright. Learn more about Hire Purchase and how it works.
If you’re looking for more flexibility, you might consider financing a van through PCP (Personal Contract Purchase). PCP deals are popular because they give you more freedom when it comes to choosing your vehicle. While PCP is often associated with cars, it’s also a great option for vans. Monthly payments are usually lower since you’re paying for the depreciation of the van rather than its full value, making it easier to manage your budget.
Which Documents Do I Need to Finance a Van?
To give your van finance application the best chance of success, it’s a good idea to gather your documents before you apply. When you’re matched with the lender that’s right for you, they’ll usually ask for a few key pieces of documentation to verify your eligibility and affordability.
Most lenders will want to confirm that you can comfortably make your monthly payments, which is typically done by reviewing your bank statements to verify your income. While requirements can vary between lenders, the most common documents you may need include:
-
A full UK driving licence
-
Proof of address or address history
-
Recent bank statements
-
Bank account details
Having these ready before you apply can make the van finance process quicker, smoother, and stress-free.

Can I Get a Used Van on Finance if I’m Self-Employed?
For many self-employed workers, having a van is essential for running their business. A common misconception is that being self-employed makes it difficult to prove your affordability — but that’s not the case. At UK Car Finance, we understand that self-employed income can be varied or not always paid directly into a bank account.
If you receive cash payments, it’s a good idea to deposit them into a UK bank account ahead of your application. Most lenders will ask for around three months’ worth of bank statements to verify your employment history and demonstrate your ability to manage your finances. With this documentation, you can still apply for used van finance and get a deal that suits your business needs.
Which Type of Van Can I Get Finance For?
One of the biggest advantages of using a van finance broker like UK Car Finance is the freedom to choose the van that best meets your business or personal needs. We work with some of the most trusted dealerships across the UK, giving you access to hundreds of used vans on finance.
Whether you’re a joiner, dog walker, florist, or run any other business, we can help you find a van that fits your budget and your requirements. From small city vans to medium and large commercial vehicles, we compare the best van finance deals on your behalf so you can drive away in the perfect van with confidence.
Is It Possible to Get Guaranteed Van Finance?
Unfortunately, no UK van finance lender can offer truly guaranteed van finance. Every lender must follow strict responsible lending rules, which means they can only approve applications for customers who can afford the monthly payments.
Any company claiming to provide “guaranteed van finance” is misleading, as approval always depends on factors such as your affordability, credit score, employment status, and financial history.
